Politician Stephen A. Douglas (1813–1861) was dubbed the “Little Giant” for his small stature and soaring oratorical skills. This carefully crafted biography examines the Illinois senator’s life and political career—including his debates with Lincoln, and his later defeat by Lincoln in the 1860 presidential election, as well as his support for the new president and the Union cause until his death in 1861.
