Book excerpt: Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln: The People's Leader in the Struggle for National Existence The twelfth of February, 1909, was the hundredth anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln. In New York, as in other cities and towns throughout the Union, the day was devoted to commemoration exercises, and even in the South, in centres like Atlanta (the capture of which in 1864 had indicated the collapse of the cause of the Confederacy), representative Southerners gave their testimony to the life and character of the great American. The Committee in charge of the commemoration in New York arranged for a series of addresses to be given to the people of the city and it was my privilege to be selected as one of the speakers. It was an indication of the rapid passing away of the generation which had had to do with the events of the War, that the list of orators, forty- six in all, included only four men who had ever seen the hero whose life and character they were describing.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of Abraham Lincoln: 1847-1865 The reason for thinking that the public may be interested in my father's recollections of Mr. Lincoln, will be found in the following letter from Hon. J. P. Usher, Secretary of the Interior during the war: - Lawrence, Kansas, May 20, 1885. Ward H. Lamon, Esq., Denver, Col. Dear Sir, - There are now but few left who were intimately acquainted with Mr. Lincoln. I do not call to mind any one who was so much with him as yourself. You were his partner for years in the practice of law, his confidential friend during the time he was President. I venture to say there is now none living other than yourself in whom he so much confided, and to whom he gave free expression of his feeling towards others, his trials and troubles in conducting his great office.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln and His Presidency, Vol. 1 of 2 Before the meeting of the Republican N ational Con vention of 1860 I had undertaken, not of my own motion or at first willingly, to write a campaign biography of its nominee for the Presidency. I was confident that my subject would not be Mr. Seward, but had no presenti ment that the choice of the convention would be Abra ham Lincoln, whom I had then never met. In my first interview with him, soon after the adjournment of the convention (oi which I was a member), he earnestly and even sadly insisted that there was no adequate material for such a work as was intended, yet he received me very kindly, and showed no unusual reserve in talking of either his earlier or maturer life. As to both periods, he readily gave such facts as my inquiries invited or suggested; introduced me to friends with whom he had been on intimate terms for more than twenty years; and put me in the way of exploring newspaper files and legislative journals in the Illinois State library for biographic material.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Character and Greatness of Abraham Lincoln: A Discourse, Delivered April 23, 1865 Two thoughts oppress and embarass me on this occasion; the greatness of my subject, and the needlessness of my task. I cannot say anything to increase the lustre of his fame, or that will enshrine him more sacredly in your affections. "Then why attempt a eulogy on the life and character of Abraham Lincoln?" To satisfy our own grief and gratitude, and to pay a just tribute to manly, noble worth. As a motto for this address, I have chosen the anguish-riven cry of Israel when they heard the chief whose prudence, fortitude and valor had crushed their foes and saved their country, lay in his own triumph and blood: "All the people of Israel greatly bewailed him. They wept many days, and said, why is that great man dead who saved the people of Israel?" The first question we propose for calm discussion is - Is the name of Abraham Lincoln worthy of being enrolled upon the catalogue of great men? We affirm it is, and might argue that. The position he occupied entitles him to this honor. You need not remind us "that merit, not position makes a man great." We know it, and reply, no man without merit could, under the circumstances, rise to that position. Let the man who denies this solve for us this problem: "A bog raised in a floorless log cabin of the West till he was twenty-one years old, working his way to eminence in the legal profession, to honor in Congressional halls, and finally elected President of the United States; elected a second time to that position of honor, and dying at the comparative early age of fifty-six." Could any but a great man rise so high - great in the highest, noblest sense of that word? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abraham Lincoln: The People's Leader in the Struggle for National Existence By George Haven Putnam ed himself upon the confidence of his neighbours that, while he was absolutely without resources, there was no difficulty in his borrowing the money required for his share of the capital. The undertaking did not prove a success. Lincoln had no business experience and no particular business capacity, while his partner proved to be untrustworthy. The partner decamped, leaving Lincoln to close up the business and to take the responsibility for the joint indebtedness. It was seventeen years before Lincoln was able, from his modest earnings as a lawyer, to clear off this indebtedness. The debt became outlawed in six years' time but this could not affect Lincoln's sense of the obligation. After the failure of the business, Lincoln secured work as county surveyor. In this, he was following the example of his predecessor Washington, with whose career as a surveyor the youngster who knew Weems's biography by heart, was of course familiar. His new occupation took him through the county and brought him into personal rel We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.
