Book excerpt: Abraham Lincoln, whose Emancipation Proclamation freed more than four million slaves, was a keen politician, an accomplished statesman, a shrewd diplomat, and a profoundly wise and funny storyteller. In this collection of Lincoln's yarns and stories, Alexander McClure, who knew Lincoln well, has compiled the witty moral tales that made Lincoln famous before he ever became president. This book is printed on archival-quality paper using a new, "green" publishing method called print-on-demand, which greatly reduces the time, cost, and waste of traditional publishing. The book is produced and distributed after it is ordered--one book at a time. That means there are no wasted books--no "remainders" to be sold at a discount, no unsalable books to be shredded, no wasted trees. This is a book you can feel good about buying.

Download or read book Abe Lincoln s Yarns and Stories written by Abraham Lincoln and published by . This book was released on 2015-01-31 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The historians who wrote histories of Lincoln's life remembered only a few of them, but the most of Lincoln's stories and the best of them remained unwritten. More than five years ago the author of this book conceived the idea of collecting all the yarns and stories, the droll sayings, and witty and humorous anecdotes of Abraham Lincoln into one large book, and this volume is the result of that idea. "Before Lincoln was ever heard of as a lawyer or politician, he was famous as a story teller. As a politician, he always had a story to fit the other side; as a lawyer, he won many cases by telling the jury a story which showed them the justice of his side better than any argument could have done. "While nearly all of Lincoln's stories have a humorous side, they also contain a moral, which every good story should have. "They contain lessons that could be taught so well in no other way. Every one of them is a sermon. Lincoln, like the Man of Galilee, spoke to the people in parables. "Nothing that can be written about Lincoln can show his character in such a true light as the yarns and stories he was so fond of telling, and at which he would laugh as heartily as anyone. "For a man whose life was so full of great responsibilities, Lincoln had many hours of laughter when the humorous, fun-loving side of his great nature asserted itself. "Every person to keep healthy ought to have one good hearty laugh every day. Lincoln did, and the author hopes that the stories at which he laughed will continue to furnish laughter to all who appreciate good humor, with a moral point and spiced with that true philosophy bred in those who live close to nature and to the people around them. "The parables, yarns, stories, anecdotes and sayings of the "Immortal Abe" deserve a place beside Aesop's Fables, Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress and all other books that have added to the happiness and wisdom of mankind. "Lincoln's stories are like Lincoln himself. The more we know of them the better we like them." -Colonel Alexander K. McClure
Download or read book Between Extremes written by Jack Furniss and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2024-11-06 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1861 and 1865, northern voters fortified Abraham Lincoln’s administration as it oversaw the end of the institution of slavery and an unprecedented expansion in the size and scope of the federal government. Since the United States never considered suspending the democratic process during the Civil War, these revolutionary developments—indeed the entire war effort—depended on ballots as much as bullets. Why did civilians who, at the start of the conflict, had not anticipated or desired these transformations to their society nonetheless vote to uphold them? Jack Furniss’s Between Extremes proposes an answer to this question by revealing a potent strand of centrist politics that took hold across the Union and provided the conservative rationales that allowed most northerners to accept the war’s radical outcomes.
