Download or read book Abraham Lincoln in Peoria Illinois Classic Reprint written by Byron Cloyd Bryner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02-02 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln in Peoria, Illinois The writer cannot refrain from publicly ex pressing his surprise and pleasure at the reception it has received and with the requests for general distribution. Complying with this demand this second edition has been issued. It contains the first edition complete and additional matter such as pic tures of Peoria as it then appeared - early steam boats - the first railroad train to enter town over the Bureau Valley road (now the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific) from Chicago, which incident occurred November 7th, 1854, three weeks after the lincoln-douglas debate of October 16th hotels where entertainment was furnished for man and beast - a picture of Peoria in 1832 when Lin coln passed through on foot upon his return from the Black Hawk war - the old market housealso, after a long search, we have found a partial report of Judge Douglas' address, preceding Mr. Lincoln's on October 16, 1854. As far as we have been able to ascertain, this is the first time it has been published in any book. All these create an atmosphere from which may be formed a picture which it is confidently believed will prove of inter estand value to the ever increasing army of stu dents of the stirring times which preceded our National recognition and gave liberty to every man, woman and child, regardless of race, creed or color, throughout the land, and united all in ever increasing love for the flag. Lincoln's speech as given in the first edition is taken from the Peoria Transcript. Upon Lin coln's return to Springfield be, three days later, wrote out and revised it, desiring no doubt to give a more clear and not to be misunderstood expres sion of his views upon the questions then at issue. In this volume is given the reporter's copy as it appeared in the first edition as well as the address as personally revised by Mr. Lincoln upon his return to Springfield. Allowance must be made for possible errors in the reporter's copy, for shorthand was then but little in vogue and the speech was probably taken in long hand at the time delivered, but upon care ful reading I cannot help but think it accurately reported.

All right, son; I'm off for a walk now. I saw a shop the other day. He walked off. It was not a beautiful street down which he turned. Even the fine width of it suggested an inflated sense of its own importance. There were some good lines in the structure at the first corner, but the building was unfinished, and droop cd sadly, like an eagle without its wings. Beyond that corner the paving of the street ended. Looking at the mud, the Man wish ed vaguely that he had worn his boots.

Download or read book The Battles that Made Abraham Lincoln written by Larry Tagg and published by Grub Street Publishers. This book was released on 2012-12-19 with total page 661 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A timely look at the atmosphere of political hostility surrounding the Civil War, and the venom faced by America’s sixteenth president. Today, Abraham Lincoln is a beloved American icon, widely considered to be our best president. It was not always so. This book takes a look at what Lincoln’s contemporaries actually thought and said about him during his lifetime, when political hostilities, and ultimately civil war, raged. The era in which our sixteenth president lived and governed was the most rough-and-tumble in the history of American politics. The hostility behind the criticism aimed at Lincoln by the great men of his time, on both sides of the Mason-Dixon line, is startling, the spectacular prejudice against him often shocking for its cruelty, intensity, and unrelenting vigor. The plain truth is that Lincoln was deeply reviled by many in his time. This book is both an entertaining read and a well-researched, serious look at the political context that begat the president’s predicament. Lincoln’s humanity has been unintentionally trivialized by some historians and writers who have hidden away the real man in a patina of bronze. This book helps us better understand the man he was, and how history is better and more clearly viewed through a long-distance lens. “Not the warm and fuzzy portrait we’re used to seeing . . . An eye-opening study, the first of its kind to focus on what Lincoln’s contemporaries really thought of him. On the other hand, this is not mean-spirited Lincoln-bashing . . . Tagg assesses his presidency through the social and political context of mid-19th century America. It was a time, for example, when ‘the rabid press routinely destroyed the reputations of public men,’ when the stature of the presidency, ‘stained by feeble performances from a string of the poorest presidents in the nation’s history,’ had plunged over decades.” —Civil War Times Magazine

Book excerpt: Excerpt from He Knew Lincoln, and Other Billy Brown Stories More than one clue must be unravelled to reach an understanding of Abraham Lincoln. Among them there surely must be reckoned his capacity for companionship. None more catholic in his selections ever lived. All men were his fellows. He went unerringly and unconsciously for the most part, to the meeting place that awaited him in each mans nature. There might be a wall, often there was; but he knew, no one better, that there is always a secret door in human walls. Sooner or later he discovered it, put his finger on its spring, passed through and settled into the place behind that was his.

Download or read book The Unpopular Mr Lincoln written by Larry Tagg and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: * Vivid study of what those around him really thought of America's "greatest president" * Published to coincide with the bicentennial of Lincoln's birth and Spielberg's biopic Today, Abraham Lincoln is a beloved American icon, widely considered to be our best president. It was not always so. Larry Tagg's The Unpopular Mr. Lincoln is the first study of its kind to concentrate on what Lincoln's contemporaries actually thought of him during his lifetime. Be forewarned: your preconceived notions are about to be shattered. Torn by civil war, the era in which our sixteenth president lived and governed was the most rough-and-tumble in the history of American politics. The violence of the criticism aimed at Lincoln by the great men of his time on both sides of the Mason-Dixon line is simply startling. Indeed, the breadth and depth of the spectacular prejudice against him is often shocking for its cruelty, intensity, and unrelenting vigor. The plain truth is that Mr. Lincoln was deeply reviled by many who knew him personally, and by hundreds of thousands who only knew of him. Boisterous and venomous enough to be good entertainment, The Unpopular Mr. Lincoln rests upon a wide foundation of research that includes years of searching through contemporary newspapers. Tagg includes extensive treatment of the political context that begat Lincoln's predicament, riding with the president to Washington, and walking with him through the bleak years of war and up to and beyond assassination. Throughout, Tagg entertains with a lively writing style, outstanding storytelling verve, and an unconventional, against-the-grain perspective that is sure to delight readers of all stripes. Lincoln's humanity has been unintentionally trivialized by some historians and writers who have hidden away the real man in a patina of bronze. Once readers learn the truth of how others viewed him, they will better understand the man he was, and how history is better viewed through a long-distance lens than contemporaneously. The bicentennial of Lincoln's birth will be celebrated in 2009 and will be the biggest year ever for public interest in Abraham Lincoln. The Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission created and funded by Congress will "inform the public about the impact Abraham Lincoln had on the development of our nation." The year will also witness the release of Steven Spielberg's long-awaited movie on President Lincoln. Of all the Lincoln books slated for publication, The Unpopular Mr. Lincoln will be the "must-read" title for general readers and scholars alike.

A bass player/singer of world renown, Larry co-founded and enjoyed substantial commercial success with "Bourgeois Tagg" in the mid-1980s.
