Reviews
"What makes The President and the Freedom Fighter so compelling is that Kilmeade lets the actual history speak for itself." --Shelby Steele, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution; author of Shame and White Guilt "A riveting page-turner that illuminates the fascinating and history-altering relationship between President Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass." --Ben Carson, MD "This compelling account of Lincoln and Douglass's friendship is the story of America itself and shows how intertwined race is with our history. Kilmeade understands that if we don't acknowledge our complex past, we'll never be the country we dream to be." --Brad Meltzer, coauthor of The Lincoln Conspiracy "Nothing less than the fate of America is at stake in this riveting and utterly fascinating Civil War-era narrative. Highly recommended!" --Douglas Brinkley, Katherine Tsanoff Brown Professor in Humanities and professor of history at Rice University; author of American Moonshot "Accessible, accurate, inspiring, and timely." --Victor Davis Hanson, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution; author of The Dying Citizen " The President and the Freedom Fighter should be in every home, school, and library in our country." --John Cribb, author of Old Abe "At a time when our heroes are being abused and statues trashed, how refreshing it is to see two genuine giants of history being given the generous historical treatment they deserve in this well-researched, crisply written, and compelling account." --Andrew Roberts, author of Churchill "Brian Kilmeade is a master!" --Tim Green, author of Football Genius and Unstoppable "To the immense benefit of the nation, two giants of America's story are beautifully captured in this highly readable account of how their extraordinary lives intertwined. A must read to understand today's complex discussions of race and social justice!" --Admiral James Stavridis, PhD, U.S. Navy (Retired)

Synopsis
Brian Kilmeade tells the little-known story of how Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass moved from strong disagreement to friendship, uniting over their love for the Constitution and over their surprising commonalities. Both came from destitution. Both were self-educated and self-made men. Both had fought hard for what they believed in. As he did in George Washington's Secret Six, Kilmeade has transformed this nearly forgotten slice of history into a dramatic story that will keep you turning the pages to find out how these two men changed each other., As president, Abraham Lincoln knew it was time for slavery to go, but how fast could the country change without being torn apart? Would it be possible to get rid of slavery while keeping America's Constitution? Abolitionist Frederick Douglass said no, the Constitution was irredeemably corrupted by slavery-and he wanted Lincoln to move faster. In The President and the Freedom Fighter, Brian Kilmeade tells of how these two American heroes moved from strong disagreement to friendship. Over the course of the Civil War, they endured bloodthirsty mobs, feverish conspiracies, and devastating losses on the battlefield-and their principles and patience not only changed each other, but moved America closer to being truly free for all.
