This book was released on 1991-05-28 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lincoln-Douglas debates remain our culture's model of what public political debate ought to be. This new edition of the complete transcripts of the debates and eyewitness interpretations of them (previously published under the title Created Equal?) includes a new Foreword by David Zarefsky. Zarefsky analyzes the rhetoric of the speeches, showing how Lincoln and Douglas chose their arguments and initiated a debate that shook the nation. Their eloquent, statesmanlike discussion of the morality of slavery illustrates the masterful use of rhetorical strategies and tactics in the public forum: a form of discourse that has nearly disappeared from the political scene today.

Book excerpt: PRAISE FOR 1858 "Highly recommended-a gripping narrative of the critical year of 1858 and the nation's slide toward disunion and war...Readers seeking to understand how individuals are agents of historical change will find Chadwick's account of the failed leadership of President James Buchanan especially compelling." -G. Kurt Piehler, author of Remembering War the American Way "Chadwick's excellent history shows how the issue of slavery came crashing into the professional, public, and private lives of many Americans...Chadwick offers a fascinating premise: that James Buchanan, far from being a passive spectator, played a major role in the drama of his time. 1858 is a welcome addition to scholarship of the most volatile period of American history." -Frank Cucurullo, Arlington House, The Robert E. Lee Memorial As 1858 dawned, the men who would become the iconic figures of the Civil War had no idea it was about to occur: Jefferson Davis was dying, Robert E. Lee was on the verge of resigning from the military, and William Tecumseh Sherman had been reduced to running a roadside food stand. By the end of 1858, the lives of these men would be forever changed, and the North and South were set on a collision course that would end with the deaths of 630,000 young men. This is the story of seven men on the brink of a war that would transform them into American legends, and the events of the year that set our union on fire.

This book was released on 2016-11-19 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume of Abraham Lincoln's letters and oratory span fifteen years, through his years in the Illinois legislature until the opening of his campaign as a United States Senator. In this volume, we witness the steady rise of Lincoln as a prominent and capable politician. His ardent belief in the abolition of slavery is marked by his letters and speeches to that effect; many of these strike a persuasive tone, with a firm grounding upon the morality and convictions which Abe Lincoln held close to heart throughout his career. We also witness the building of the United States infrastructure; for example, Lincoln is receptive to the new technology of the railroad, and recognizes the role of canals in the proper transportation of goods. In his essay introducing the first volume of this series, Carl Shurz notes that a great starting point for study of Lincoln is his personal letters, speeches and other writings. It is by reading these items sequentially that we gain an insight into the mind of a man who was to become arguably the greatest President the United States has seen to date. We come to realize that Lincoln was - contrary to his portrait as a near-infallible and towering figure - a human being with emotions, strengths and weaknesses. This record of Lincoln's personal correspondences is complete and unabridged, offering readers a chronologically arranged account of the man's early life. We join Lincoln as an ambitious politician on the cusp of middle age in 1843, gaining in confidence and eloquence both in his public addresses and private correspondences. which reveal a man with wisdom imbued by his innate personality, and by years of experience. Perhaps most notably of all is Abraham Lincoln's rare and stubborn eagerness to perform as a public servant to the best of his capacity. Through reading and comparing his own writings, we see how Lincoln's political views and positions Lincoln evolved over his lifetime, informed by experience he steadily amassed debating and passing legislation, and examining the consequences of his prior decisions. There is also a personal side to his writings: capable of offering counsel and comfort to those he considered friends, many of Lincoln's letters concern not politics or law drafting, but matters such as contentious criminal cases which Lincoln, as a lawyer, could claim authority on. Subjects such as marriage, and friendly correspondences, are also present. At the conclusion of this volume in 1858, Lincoln is readying himself to run for the United States Senate against Stephen A. Douglas.
Download or read book The Papers and Writings of Abraham Lincoln written by Abraham Lincoln and published by . This book was released on 2015-12-17 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) is one of the most famous Americans in history and one of the country's most revered presidents. Schoolchildren can recite the life story of Lincoln, the "Westerner" who educated himself and became a self made man, rising from lawyer to leader of the new Republican Party before becoming the 16th President of the United States. Lincoln successfully navigated the Union through the Civil War but didn't live to witness his own accomplishment, becoming the first president assassinated when he was killed at Ford's Theater by John Wilkes Booth. As impressive as his presidency was, one of his most lasting legacies was his writing. In addition to masterful writing for everything from orders to his generals and condolences to the aggrieved Mrs. Bixby, his Second Inaugural Address and Gettysburg Address are considered masterpieces that rate among the greatest writings in American history. Perhaps Lincoln's most impressive feat is that he was able to convey so much with so few words; after famous orator Edward Everett spoke for hours at Gettysburg, Lincoln's Gettysburg Address only took a few minutes. In the generation after the Civil War, Lincoln became an American deity and one of the most written about men in history. Understandably, all of his writings and papers were intently scoured and collected, and they've been preserved in seven volumes of "Papers and Writings."
