Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The History of Joseph Bonaparte, King of Naples and of Italy The writer trusts that be may be pardoned for relating the following characteristic anecdote of President Lincoln, as it so fully illustrates the object in view in writing these histories. In a conversation which the writer had with the President just before his death, Mr. Lincoln said: "I want to thank you and your brother for Abbotts´ series of Histories. I have not education enough to appreciate the profound works of voluminous historians, and if I had, I have no time to read them. But your series of Histories gives me, in brief compass, just that knowledge of past men and events which I need. I have read them with the greatest interest. To them I am indebted for about all the historical knowledge I have." It is for just this purpose that these Histories are written. Busy men, in this busy life, have now no time to wade through ponderous folios. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
