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.

The present volume is concerned with Mr. Lincoln in the White House, the elected head of a government in crisis. The man seen earlier in the courts and on the political hustings of Illinois is now guiding his nation through a civil war. Generals, cabinet officers, political leaders, and many men of high and low degree are his associates as he gradually wins the victory of arms and, with it, the victory of the human S Int.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lincoln Day by Day; A Chronology, 1809-1865, Vol. 1: 1809-1848 Today, a century and a half after his birth, the magic of the man has no geographical boundary. The echo of his thoughts is heard in many lands; his strength of purpose remains vigorously alive wherever people, throwing off the many guises of human oppression, struggle toward the self-deter mination that he described so beautifully upon a hillside at Gettysburg. In life, to those who knew and loved him best, Lincoln often seemed an enigma. His devoted partner, William Herndon, once described him as the most secretive, reticent, shut-mouthed man that ever lived; and his first biographer, Josiah G. Holland, could not disguise a certain irritation with Lincoln as a subject: He rarely showed more than one aspect of himself to one man. He opened himself to men in different directions. When Holland told the story of Lincoln's drawing a New Testament from his breast and avowing that here was the rock on which I stand, Herndon was beside himself with disgust; on the question of Mr. Lincoln's religion, Herndon intended to tell the truth about an infidel - a Deist who sometimes in his fits of melancholy was an atheist. So argued two who knew Lincoln personally; later biographers, examining the record were not so confused. Of the Second Inaugural, Lord Charnwood said: Prob ably no other speech of a modern statesman uses so unreservedly thelanguage of intense religious feeling. And Charnwood believed that he knew why Lincoln attained this distinction: This man had stood alone in the dark. He had done justice; he had loved mercy; he had walked humbly with his God. Where does one turn for the truth about Mr. Lincoln - or, perhaps more realistically, for the approximate truth? To distinguish history from myth, fact from prejudice, or even a genuine document from a forgery would be a task of considerable perplexity were it not for two contributions to historical scholarship for which the present generation must be long remembered. The first of these achievements was the publication in 1953, under the general editorship of Dr. Roy P. Basler, of The Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln. The happy decision of the Lincoln Sesquicentennial Commission to support the compilation and publication of the present three volumes of this chronology adds the other accomplishment. The two works, following the same texts for Lincoln's writing and speeches and employing the same symbols for identifying manuscript sources, are designed to be used together, yet each makes its own distinct (and, in some respects, unique) contribution to our understanding of the man and his age.
