A review of Lincoln's Manager which focuses on Mr. Justice Davis, who served in the court with Lincoln, managed his campaign, and was appointed to U.S. Supreme Court in 1862. Hurst cites Davis's lack of renown as a judge as an impediment to the book's content. Includes attached correspondence to the Dean of the University of Chicago disclosing Hurst's rather low opinion of the text.
