The Church was thrilled to present author, pundit, and Sag Harbor resident John Avlon to speak on his new, widely-praised, and important book LINCOLN AND THE FIGHT FOR PEACE. Described by the publisher as "A groundbreaking, revelatory history of Abraham Lincoln’s plan to secure a just and lasting peace after the Civil War—a vision that inspired future presidents as well as the world’s most famous peacemakers, including Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, and Martin Luther King, Jr. It is a story of war and peace, race and reconciliation."
