Our podcast guest this week is New York Times bestselling biographer Walter Stahr on his new book on Salmon Chase. Chase is often remembered as Lincoln’s rival for the Republican party nomination in 1860 – but he was much more.

Stahr, in his biography, gives a fresh take on one of the most interesting and influential men of his time.
