Summary "Academy Award-nominees Paul Giamatti and David Strathairn star in this electrifying dramatization by Norman Corwin of the history-making Lincoln-Douglas debates. The fierce rivalry between rising legislator Abraham Lincoln and incumbent Senator Stephen A. Douglas tackled some of the day's most passionate and controversial issues - above all those of slavery and the American concept of freedom. As seen through the eyes of Douglas' young wife Adele (Lily Rabe), the play illuminates two of the most charismatic politicians of any era. Nominated for two 2010 Audies Awards for Best Audio Drama and Best Multi-Voiced Performance."--Leaf A. Theatre Works, Audio Theatre Collection
