Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World's Lincoln But even where the witnesses have been diligent, more than much remains in obscurity. Boswell on Johnson and Pepys on himself tell us a great deal that is significant, but their copious notes leave untold more than they tell. It must inevitably be so. The full story of a man's life would take as long to read as to live, and twenty times as long to write. The amplest compilation of facts, say Lockhart on Scott or Moore on Byron, amounts at last to a slight and more or less fortuitous selection. Far from being regrettable, this is fortunate; but it is a fact. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln Braham lincoln is one Of the greatest A names in the world. The parents who gave it to their boy were so poor that they lived in a house where there was only one room. But it matters very little whether houses are big or small. It is the men and women living there who make them either noble. Or mean. And thus, though Abraham Lincoln was born in a tiny, one-roomed cottage, through his uprightness, his hard work, and his natural cleverness he not only became President Of the United States, but, what is more, he left in the world such an impression of nobility that as long as the world Shall last he will be remembered and honoured. It was a cold, dark day in February 1809 when Lincoln was born in a lonely, desolate spot in the backwoods of Kentucky. The little wooden house was not much better than a shed. The one room in it had to be used as a kitchen, dining-room, sitting room, and bedroom, all in one. There was no door to keep out the cold draughts, but a large skin hung over the entrance and helped to make it warm, and a pile Of huge logs crackled and glowed in the big, open fireplace. The window was only a square hole cut in the Side of the wooden wall, through which the bitter wind rushed whistling in. On very cold days the skin of an animal shot in the woods near by would be fastened across this Opening to shut out, the freezing air, but this meant that the light would be shutout too, so that it was only on the coldest days that the window was darkened.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oft-Told Tales of Lincoln More than three thousand volumes have been written about the life and work of Abraham Lincoln. He has taken, in our modern world, the place of the heroes of ancient epics and legends: he is our Beowulf, our Charlemagne, our King Arthur; in a word, he is our national hero. So much has been written that the folly of attempting a new, or even an original interpretation of the old, is evident. We make no such pretense, but instead gratefully acknowledge indebtedness to many sources from which we have taken those authentic episodes in the childhood and youth of Abra ham Lincoln, which foreshadowed his con duct during the dark days of the Civil War. We have tried to trace, in the boy Lincoln, those latent characteristics whio h whendeveloped gave us the greatest leader and man our country has known.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lincoln Memoirs: From the Log Cabin to the White House A new century has come, since Lincoln gave up his life for his country. All the conditions with which he was familiar have changed. America has become a world power, with all the responsibilities that the term implies. All things have become new. The bitter animosities, extreme partisanship and sectional hatred that was so long a part of public life, have given way to the resist less spirit of progress. Those who were once bitter foes, meet to day in the world of business as friends. Nor is the love of gain the only incentive to this new relation ship.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Complete Works of Abraham Lincoln, Vol. 1 Something more than a decade has elapsed since the preceding words were written, and dur ing that period the assiduity of a multitude of Lincoln collectors has brought to light a large amount of manuscript material which inevitably escaped even such conscientious workers as Nic olay and Hay.
