Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Humorous and Pathetic Stories of Abraham Lincoln: A Collection of Anecdotes and Stories Told by and of President Lincoln; Many of Them Heretofore Unpublished In presenting to the readers Lincoln´s stories, there is a feeling of satisfaction that they will be well received. No man has lived, in the history of this country, who holds a more sacred place in the minds of the people than Honest Abe Lincoln, as he was familiarly known. His steadfastness of purpose, clear discernment, and equity of judgment peculiarly fitted him for the high position of Chief Executive of this Nation at a time when the seeds of disunionism were being scattered broadcast throughout the land. Abraham Lincoln had a marked penchant for story telling. There is hardly an instance in even the most serious of his interviews, that the familiar phrase "That reminds me of a story," was not introduced. In collecting these memoirs of Lincoln we are indebted to the press, to friends and to Barretts McClure´s "Anecdotes of Abraham Lincoln."
