Book excerpt: The present revision of "The Every-day Life of Abraham Lincoln" was the last literary labor of its author. He had long wished to undertake the work, and had talked much of it for several years past. But favorable arrangements for the book's republication were not completed until about a year ago. Then, though by no means recovered from an attack of pneumonia late in the previous winter, he took up the task of revision and recasting with something of his old-time energy. It was a far heavier task than he had anticipated, but he gave it practically his undivided attention until within three or four weeks of his death. Only when the last pages of manuscript had been despatched to the printer did he yield to the overwhelming physical suffering that had been upon him for a long time past. His death occurred at Santa Barbara, California, on May 11. Francis Fisher Browne was born at South Halifax, Vermont, on December 1, 1843. His parentage, on both sides, was of the purest New England stock. Early in his childhood, the family moved to Western Massachusetts, where the boy went to school and learned the printing trade in his father's newspaper office at Chicopee. As a lad of eighteen, he left the high school in answer to the government's call for volunteers, serving for a year with the 46th Massachusetts Regiment in North Carolina and with the Army of the Potomac. When the regiment was discharged, in 1863, he decided to take up the study of vilaw. Removing to Rochester, N.Y., he entered a law office in that city; and a year or two later began a brief course in the law department of the University of Michigan. He was unable to continue in college, however, and returned to Rochester to follow his trade.

This book was released on 2018-09-19 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Browne's biography begins "in a rude cabin in a clearing, in the wilds of that section which was once the hunting-ground and later the battle-field of the Cherokees" and with a look at Lincoln's ancestry and youth before showing the budding career of a man who would become such a giant in American history. What is more, much of what Browne writes was gleaned from those who had known Lincoln:"The men whose narratives make up a large part of this book all saw Lincoln plain, and here tell us what he spoke to them, and how he looked and seemed while saying it. The great events of Lincoln's life, and impressions of his character, are given in the actual words of those who knew him-his friends, neighbors, and daily associates-rather than condensed and remolded into other form.""The value of these reminiscences increases with time. They were gathered largely at first hand. They can never be replaced, nor can they ever be very much extended.' "

(Francis Fisher) Browne and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-07 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Every-day Life of Abraham Lincoln A Narrative And Descriptive Biography With Pen-Pictures And Personal Recollections By Those Who Knew Him by Francis F. (Francis Fisher) Browne CHAPTER I Ancestry-The Lincolns in Kentucky-Death of Lincoln's Grandfather-Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks-Mordecai Lincoln-Birth of Abraham Lincoln-Removal to Indiana-Early Years-Dennis Hanks-Lincoln's Boyhood-Death of Nancy Hanks-Early School Days-Lincoln's First Dollar-Presentiments of Future Greatness-Down the Mississippi-Removal to Illinois-Lincoln's Father-Lincoln the Storekeeper-First Official Act-Lincoln's Short Sketch of His Own Life. The year 1809-that year which gave William E. Gladstone to England-was in our country the birth-year of him who wears the most distinguished name that has yet been written on the pages of American history-ABRAHAM LINCOLN. In a rude cabin in a clearing, in the wilds of that section which was once the hunting-ground and later the battle-field of the Cherokees and other war-like tribes, and which the Indians themselves had named Kentucky because it was "dark and bloody ground," the great War President of the United States, after whose name History has written the word "Emancipator," first saw the light. Born and nurtured in penury, inured to hardship, coarse food, and scanty clothing, -the story of his youth is full of pathos. Small wonder that when asked in his later years to tell something of his early life, he replied by quoting a line from Gray's Elegy: "The short and simple annals of the poor."

This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Every-day Life of Abraham Lincoln: Large Print By Francis F. Browne 1913 narrative and descriptive biography with pen-pictures and personal recollections by those who knew him. Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) was the sixteenth President of the United States, serving from 1861 until his assassination. As an outspoken opponent of the expansion of slavery in the United States, Lincoln won the Republican Party nomination in 1860 and was elected president later that year. During his term, he helped preserve the United States by leading the defeat of the secessionist Confederate States of America in the American Civil War. He introduced measures that resulted in the abolition of slavery, issuing his Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 and promoting the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution in 1865. He closely supervised the victorious war effort, especially the selection of top generals, including Ulysses S. Grant. Historians have concluded that he handled the factions of the Republican Party well, bringing leaders of each faction into his cabinet and forcing them to cooperate. Lincoln successfully defused a war scare with the United Kingdom in 1861.
Download or read book Abraham Lincoln in the Kitchen written by Rae Katherine Eighmey and published by Smithsonian Institution. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abraham Lincoln in the Kitchen is a culinary biography unlike any before. The very assertion of the title--that Abraham Lincoln cooked--is fascinating and true. It's an insight into the everyday life of one of our nation's favorite and most esteemed presidents and a way to experience flavors and textures of the past. Eighmey solves riddles such as what type of barbecue could be served to thousands at political rallies when paper plates and napkins didn't exist, and what gingerbread recipe could have been Lincoln's childhood favorite when few families owned cookie cutters and he could carry the cookies in his pocket. Through Eighmey's eyes and culinary research and experiments--including sleuthing for Lincoln's grocery bills in Springfield ledgers and turning a backyard grill into a cast-iron stove--the foods that Lincoln enjoyed, cooked, or served are translated into modern recipes so that authentic meals and foods of 1820-1865 are possible for home cooks. Feel free to pull up a chair to Lincoln's table.
