What to expect

In this star-studded audiobook commissioned specially for audio, Abraham Lincoln and Harriet Beecher Stowe's narration is woven together with powerfully acted scenes from Uncle Tom's Cabin, the speeches and writing of Lincoln, Emerson, and others, bringing the Civil War to dazzling, authentic new life. Riveting dialogue, personal letters and the infamous Lincoln-Douglas debates reverberate with powerful relevance today. "America has never been so divided - except during the Civil War. I kept thinking, 'What if we could produce an audiobook that gives voice to the great leaders of that time period? Could the words of those great leaders help us now?'" shared executive producer Alison Larkin. Adapted, written and directed by Audie award-winning director Anna Lyse Erikson, this brilliantly performed audio experience stars Golden Voice narrator Scott Brick (Grammy-nominated and Earphones Award winning) as Abraham Lincoln, Moira Quirk (Emmy Award Winning) as Harriet Beecher Stowe, Matthew Wolf (Game of Thrones, The Royals, Scandal) as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Rif Hutton (General Hospital, NCIS) as Uncle Tom and others, P J Ochlan (Award-winning Broadway actor) as Stephen A. Douglas and others, Karen Malina White (Emmy-nominated actress) as Eliza Harris, Michel Crouch (Golden Voice narrator) as Younger Clarence and introducing writer and actor Nick Nerangis (The Wire, West Wing) as Older Clarence and the author of the play A Life of Honor.
