Download or read book Lincoln s Religion written by William Henry Herndon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lincoln's Religion: The Text of Addresses In 1872, the Rev. James A. Reed was delivering a lecture on The Later Life and Religious Sentiments of Abraham Lincoln which attracted enough atten tion to justify the editor of Scribner's Monthly in requesting the manuscript for publication. The text of this lecture appeared in this issue of that magazine for November, 1873, introduced by an editorial footnote reading as follows: The accompanying article was originally prepared by its author (the pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, in Springfield, Illi nois), as a lecture, and has been repeatedly given in that form to various audiences. At the request of the Editor of Scribner's Monthly, to whom it seemed that the testimony contained in the lecture was of permanent value, it is here presented with slight alterations, and with no departure from the rhetorical style which was determined by its original purpose.

Download or read book Lincoln written by Edward Zimmer and James McKee and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-28 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The village of Lancaster became the state of Nebraska's first capital city in 1867, renamed Lincoln. Not everyone predicted its success. One early observer noted: "There are no roads leading to it now. It has no commerce and there is scarcely a wagon load of produce raised annually within ten, perhaps twenty miles of it." These postcards from the authors' collections tell a different story in 200-plus images of a city that not only survived but thrived. Most of these images are from postcards' heyday in the first quarter of the 20th century. Many show buildings and places still recognizable a century later, while some depict less familiar scenes now lost.
