Lincoln rebuked his friend for failing to oppose slavery. But he added: \"If for this you and I must differ, differ we must,\" and said they would be friends forever. Throughout his life and political career, Lincoln often agreed to disagree. Democracy demanded it, since even an adversary had a vote. The man who went on to become America's sixteenth president has assumed many roles in our historical consciousness, but most notable is that he was, unapologetically, a politician. And as Steve Inskeep argues, it was \u003ci\u003ebecause \u003c\/i\u003ehe was willing to engage in politics--meeting with critics, sometimes working with them and other times outwitting them--that he was able to lead a social revolution. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eDiffer We Must\u003c\/i\u003e, Inskeep illuminates Lincoln's life through sixteen encounters, some well-known, some obscure, but all imbued with new significance. As the host of NPR's \u003ci\u003eMorning Edition \u003c\/i\u003efor almost two decades, Inskeep has mastered the art of bridging divides and building constructive debate in interviews; here, he brings his skills to bear on a prior master, forming a fresh and compelling narrative of Lincoln's life. With rich detail and enlightening commentary, Inskeep expands our understanding of a politician who held strong to his moral compass while navigating between corrosive political factions, one who began his career in the minority party and not only won the majority but succeeded in uniting a nation.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSteve Inskeep \u003c\/b\u003eis a cohost of NPR's\u003ci\u003e Morning Edition\u003c\/i\u003e, the most widely heard radio program in the United States, and of NPR's \u003ci\u003eUp First\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eone of the nation's most popular podcasts.
