Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When, thirty-five years ago, the Lincoln Centennial Association of Springfield, Illinois changed its character from a local organization celebrating Lincoln's birthday with an annual banquet to a research organization, the first project undertaken was an attempt to discover where Lincoln was and what he did every day of his life. In 1926 the pioneering result, a slim pamphlet, now a collector's item, Lincoln in the Year 1858, was published. Six others appeared at regular intervals (1859 and 1860 in 1927, 1854 in 1928, 1855 in 1929, 1856 and 1857 in 1930) ... The seven pamphlets, revised, were brought together in 1933 in Lincoln 1854-1861, Being the Day-by-Day Activities of Abraham Lincoln from January 1, 1854 to March 4, 1861, by Paul M. Angle, executive secretary of the Abraham Lincoln Association. The following eight years carried the chronology back to Lincoln's birth with three more volumes -- Lincoln 1847-1853 by Benjamin P. Thomas, 1936; and Lincoln 1840-1846 and Lincoln 1809-1839 by Harry E. Pratt, 1939 and 1941 -- and the series became known as one of the most useful reference works in the entire range of Lincoln scholarship. Lincoln's daily activities were chronicled by using every authentic source. In the resulting mountain of material, three sources proved most fruitful: Lincoln's writings; newspapers; and Illinois court records. The opening of the Robert Todd Lincoln Papers in July, 1947, provided much new material, and The Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln, in nine volumes, appearing in 1953, almost doubled the number of known compositions from Lincoln's pen. Revising and reprinting the chronology was a project often discussed by Abraham Lincoln Association officials, but never accomplished, as the undertaking would be large and expensive, particularly if carried through Lincoln's years as President. The Lincoln Sesquicentennial Commission, after considering other possibilities, recognized the revision and enlargement of Lincoln Day-by-Day as a research tool indispensable to future generations of students. It is singularly appropriate that an idea conceived by an organization formed to celebrate Lincoln's Centennial should be completed by an agency created by Congress to celebrate Lincoln's Sesquicentennial. The Abraham Lincoln Association generously transferred its copyright to the Commission"--Preface.

His thesis for the doctorate was in this field. Later he served as Dean of Blackburn College and. As Professor of History at Illinois Wesleyan University.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abraham Lincoln 1809-1865 Abraham Lincoln was the sixteenth president of the United States. Lincoln held himself to a high level of ethics and courage throughout his presidency. Abraham Lincoln's mother died in 1819 when he was just nine years old, leaving his father, Thomas, and eleven-year-old sister, Sarah, in charge of the household. Ten years later in 1828, Sarah would die giving birth to a stillborn which devastated Lincoln. By early 1835, Abraham was in a relationship with Ann Rutledge but was not yet engaged. In August of that same year, Ann died of typhoid fever. In 1839, Lincoln met Mary Todd, and they married in 1841. The couple had four sons: Robert Todd, born in 1843; Edward (Eddie) Baker, born in 1846; Willie, born in 1850; and Thomas Tad, born in 1853. Eddie died in 1850, most likely of tuberculosis; Willie died of a fever at the White House in 1862; and Thomas outlived his father Abraham but died of heart failure in 1871. The deaths of Eddie and Willie had an enormous negative impact on both Abraham and Mary, leaving them in deep depression. Abraham Lincoln led the nation into, through, and out of the Civil War while holding the United States together as one nation. Lincoln held the Founding Fathers in very high regard. Some historians believe it was almost like a religious reverence. Abraham was a man of profound faith. He attended church and read the Bible as a child. He held himself to the highest character and was self-taught in law. In 1861, Abraham Lincoln was nominated as the Republican candidate for president of the United States, which he won. Abraham fully understood that war between North and South was eminent. In his farewell speech on February 11, 1861, leaving Illinois for Washington, he said, "I now leave not knowing when or whether ever I may return, with a task before me greater than that which rested upon Washington. Without the assistance of that Divine Being who ever attended him, I cannot succeed. With that assistance I cannot fail." It was in 1852 that Abraham Lincoln receives a copy of The Believer's Daily Treasure from his wife Mary, which offered 365 days of scriptural lessons and fit perfectly in his vest pocket. It was that little book that pulled him through many difficult days in his personal and political life as well as the Civil War. This book offers a revision of that very book in today's English for ease of reading and brief commentary on the scriptures for better understanding. If there's anything we all need today, it's a greater understanding of the Scriptures to pull us through. By all accounts, it was essential for Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln's "little book" was a priceless daily study then and a priceless daily study now.
