Summary, etc.:
Recreates Abraham Lincoln's last murder trial--a case which posed painful personal challenges for Lincoln. The murder victim had trained for the law in his office, and Lincoln had been his friend and his mentor. The accused killer, the young man Lincoln would defend, was the son of a close friend and loyal supporter. And to win this trial Lincoln would have to form an unholy allegiance with a longtime enemy.
