The Greatest Leader You’ve Never Understood | Doris Kearns Goodwin

Sobre este episodio

<p>What made Lincoln great wasn’t power or genius, it was his moral fiber. Historian and bestselling author Doris Kearns Goodwin joins Ryan to explore why Lincoln stands above the rest, how ambition can be twisted toward selfishness or greatness, and how moments of pain and principle shape true leaders. Ryan and Doris discuss the pressures of writing about legendary figures, Doris’s years working for LBJ, and what it takes to bring history to life for future generations.</p><br><p>Doris Kearns Goodwin is a Pulitzer Prize–winning presidential historian and bestselling author.
