Team of Rivals Massachusetts School of Law 1 hr 0 min 8 sec - Jun 27, 2006 Acclaimed historian Doris Kearns Goodwin was recently a guest on the television program “Books of Our Time,” which airs on CN8 The Comcast Network. This series is produced by the Massachusetts School of Law, whose dean, Lawrence R. Velvel, interviewed Goodwin about her latest book, Team of Rivals. In this book about Abraham Lincoln and his cabinet, she illuminates Lincoln's political genius, as the one-term congressman and prairie lawyer rises from obscurity to prevail over gifted rivals of national reputation to become president. Those rivals were Salmon P. Chase, the Ohio governor who was Lincoln's secretary of the treasury; Missouri statesman Edward Bates, named attorney general; William Seward, senator from New York who became secretary of state; and EdwinStanton, who later in the administration was named secretary of war. Here Goodwin comments on Lincoln, Seward, and the 1860 Republican National Convention: “Seward is the most interesting character, in some ways, of Lincoln’s cabinet, because everyone thought he should have been president, including himself. Ten thousand people waiting outside his home (on the evening the nomination was secured for Lincoln), the champagne already uncorked, and it seemed like an irrecoverable disappointment. 5.
