The Abraham Lincoln Association: links to Liverpool with (John Maxwell)
The Abraham Lincoln Association:
links to Liverpool with (John Maxwell)
In this episode of American Civil War & UK History podcast, Daz is joined by author John Maxwell. Today's discussion focuses on the potential connections between the Lincoln Association and the elite of Liverpool.
Before the American Civil War, Liverpool was booming due to the import of Southern cotton. However, when the import of this cotton ceased, the wealth of the city's rich cotton merchants was put at risk.
While writing his latest book, *The Americans of Abercromby Square*, John came across an intriguing article. This article suggests a possible financial link between Liverpool's wealthy merchants and an early plot to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln
