Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln In considering the career of a man like Abraham Lincoln, we are disposed to view the end from the beginning, and to see the President of the United States and the great Emancipator in the young lawyer and politician exercising and developing his talents in the courts and on the hustings of primitive Illinois; in the boy growing to manhood in the backwoods of Indiana, and even in the child of the lowly Kentucky home. But the future was a sealed book for him, as much as for any of his fellows, and unfolded to him no more of promise than to them. He rose to distinction by slow degrees, and his life had drawn near to its close before it became visible to any that he was destined to perform a great and peculiar part in the world´s work. Thomas Ford died in the year 1850, leaving in manuscript a history of Illinois, which was published a few years later. Ford had been Governor of Illinois, a resident of the State for many years, and a constant attendant upon its legislative sessions.
