Download or read book Abraham Lincoln the True Story of a Great Life Vol 1 of 2 Classic Reprint written by William Henry Herndon and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Henry Herndon and Jesse Weik's "Abraham Lincoln the True Story of a Great Life," published in 1892, is a voluminous biography of one of the greatest statesmen in American history. This could be regarded as an authoritative resource due to the main fact that Mr. Herndon himself was a good friend and law partner of the former President of the United States. The co-author knew him even before he married or was elected to Congress. He also had the privilege of being invited by former President Lincoln to join him in a new legal partnership and of being described as by the latter as "my man always above all other men on the globe." Despite Mr. Herndon's close association with the American leader who abolished slavery, he still did his share of research, gathering accounts relating to President Lincoln's life in order to present an accurate picture of him as a real man rather than a saint, which is what the official biographers did. Mr. Weik assisted in rewriting and doing supplementary research work in order to update the work that his co-biographer has already accomplished. He also provided financial support and rewrote most of the initial draft. What we have now is a very detailed portrait of the assassinated President, covering two volumes. This edition is the first part, covering the subject's birth up to his first appearance at the Illinois Supreme Court. Despite Mr. Herndon's close association to President Lincoln, there are some portions in this book that would require more prudence, as they have been refuted by the subject's own son. Nevertheless, admirers of the former leader, as well as historians, can glean interesting insights from this volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln, Vol. 1 of 2: A New Portrait While Lincoln lived, the United States of today was a nation very much in the making. It was in the making not only politically and economically but intellectually and morally as well. It was a people trying to find itself under conditions of greatest novelty and unexampled diversity. Political and social institutions, which had been fairly well tested for a reasonable length of time within closely defined and relatively homogeneous areas, were now to be set to work under conditions of greatest diversity both social and economic. A federal union was to be built and preserved under conditions which often seemed to make either the building or the preservation beyond the practical powers of man. Nevertheless, the Westward movement of the pioneer families and groups, the Ordinance of 1784 and that of 1787 for the government of the Northwest Territory, the Louisiana Purchase, the acquisition of Florida, the Ashburton Treaty, the Oregon treaty of 1846, and the results of the Mexican War all followed relentlessly one after the other, and moved steadily toward the accomplishment and perpetuity of one great aim.
