Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Abraham Lincoln, Vol. 1 Besides the biography proper, comprised in twenty-six short chapters, this volume contains a liberal collection of the most treasured stories and anecdotes either told by Lincoln or concerning him. Every effort has been made to include only such "Lincoln stories" as have well-established authenticity. Here also are estimates of Lincoln´s character and achievements as presented in the eloquent tribute of Robert G.Ingersoll and the memorable eulogy pronounced by Henry Watterson. The life of Lincoln cannot be fully understood without a study of his letters and speeches, including the great debates with Stephen A. Douglas. As a stump speaker and an orator of singular effectiveness Lincoln left the impress ohis genius on the body politic no less plainly marked than the influence of his character and deeds. Owing to the comparative brevity of the present Life, it has been deemed best to give here but few quotations from speeches and letters, but in the other volumes of this series all the speeches are included, together with as many of the letters as are considered interesting or important. Read in connection with the Life, these will leave little wanting that is needful to a full appreciation of the personality and public services of the "first American."
