Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lincoln: The Man of Sorrow We are pleased to meet such a large and enthusiastic audience tonight. I have not been in Philadelphia since the Centennial was held here in 1876 until today. I am glad to be here again. Most people are interested in American history. All ought to be. We are becoming students of history more and more every day. The great problem is how to study it. I believe we should burn all the school histories of today. It has become so large a subject that we cannot teach it in the schools through the ordinary school book. The only way we can truly study history is through biography; by reading the lives of great men. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nation's Sorrow: A Discourse on the Death of Abraham Lincoln, Delivered in the Larkin Street Presbyterian Church, San Francisco, April 16th, 1865 The scene presented by our city to-day is unpre cedented in the history of America. Every flag in town drooping at half-mast; every church and public building, and nearly every store and private dwelling, draped in black, and eloquent with grief faces that had scarcely shown a trace of sentiment for years, flashing or lowering with intense feeling; hard, stern-featured men weeping like women; every voice hushed to a whisper, yet keyed up with a will and resolution which no words can utter; the very air alive and electrical with emotion - all, all make it evident that the hearts of our citizens are touched with sorrow as they have never been touched before. These same sad sights and sounds of woe are everywhere around us. They are seen and heard in all the towns and vine-clad valleys of the State. They are echoed back from our granite hills and snow-capped Sierras. They are in all our bor ders, from the Klamath to the Colorado.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heroic Life of Abraham Lincoln: The Great Emancipator Abraham was the firstborn, and then there was a sister Sarah, a year younger than he; then came Thomas two years later, who died in infancy. The first schooling Abraham got was from his mother, who taught his sister and him to spell and to read. \vhen in his Seventh year he went to school in the little log school-house near his home. But Thomas Lincoln, the father, heard of the richand fertile lands of Indiana, which had recently been admitted into the Union, and the tales of the Indians so inspired him that. He pulled up stakes and started for the new home, which to them was the Land of Promise. With all their household stuff packed on two horses, they made their way, by night sleeping on the fragrant pine twigs, clearing their way through tangled thickets and fording the streams. At last after a week or more on the tiresome journey they came to the banks of the river and, looking over, they saw the almost trackless forest which was to be their home. The family pushed their way forward, and on a grassy knoll in the heart of the untrodden forest they built their first rude cabin. Abraham was now in his eighth year. He was tall, thin and gawky, and clad in frontier fashion. He said himself he never wore stockings until he was a young man grown. In this log hut, in the first year of their frontier life, came their first great sorrow, the death of their mother, on the 3d of October. She was buried under the shade of a wide-spreading sycamore tree, and over her grave little Abe shed his first tears of real sorrow. Years after he would say with tear-dimmed eyes, All I am or hope to be I owe to my angel mother. In the autumn Of 1816, Thomas Lincoln, with the slight assistance little Abe could give him, felled the logs and raised a more substantial cabin.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Abraham Lincoln's Assassination One hundred and twenty-one years ago, according to the vague records of the event, Abraham Lincoln was born. A child of the southern wilderness, his character was moulded and wrought in an environment of loneliness, sorrow and privation. His heart bled from early youth until under the weeping skies of a sad April morning in 1865, it was drained of its last crimson drop. The joys of the world never knew him, to happiness he was a stranger, life's burdens clung to him with ever-increasing weight until death struck them from his tired shoulders. The great duties that came to him were duties of pain and sorrow; the triumphs he won were triumphs that crushed his soul with grief.

Not only here in our little sea-side city, but all along the Atlantic coast, in every port and home, and far out over the wide land, in all its hamlets and cities, from all its valleys and hill-sides and prairies, the voice of lamentation goes up to God. From every craft upon our rivers, from every ship and steamer in our harbors, from every flag-staff on land or sea, our nation's ensign floats at half-mast over hearts that are heavy with grief. The golden shores of the Pacific send an answering echo to the wail of our we. East and West, North and South, sit down together in sackcloth, crying, Put off thy pleasant robes, O daughter of the land, lay aside thy beautiful gar ments for the raiment of grief. For the brave hath gone down to the place of darkness the cedar is bowed in the dust; his leaves are perished. Let the fir tree mourn aloud in Elealeh; let the cedars of Lebanon hang their heads in tears. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The gamut of all feeling thou didst sweep, Upon thy soul did each emotion play; Thou wert the incarnation of each spell That rests upon the human spirit strange.

Download or read book Abraham Lincoln Classic Reprint written by Lewis Henry Steiner and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln Unalloyed happiness finds no home on earth. Grief quickly follows joy, and the soul, sickened at such transition, is, at times, almost overwhelmed with despair. But to the Christian - both grief and joy are the gifts of a heavenly Father. Behind the frowning cloud there is the paternal care and solicitude of One who cares for His people, and whose ways, however dark and mysterious they may appear, are nevertheless the ways of Infinite Wisdom. Out of the darkness and gloom will come again bright and joyful scenes; and joy will follow grief once more. And so it must be in this vale of tears, for, to use the words of a Scotch writer, "Grief and joy, unlike as they appear in face and figure, are nevertheless sisters, and by fate and destiny, their verra lives depend on ane and the same eternal law. Were Grief banished frae this life, Joy would soon dwine awa into the resemblance o'her departed Soror - aye, her face would soon be whiter and mair woe-begone, and they woidd soon be buried, side by side, in ae grave." And this transition is but part of that preparation which is wisely ordained for man, in order to fit him loran abode where tears shall no longer have a place, but all shall be perennial joy. This uncertain duration of joy and happiness is not confined to individuals or families. Communities, states, and nations are also exposed to its perturbing effects. The mysterious ways of Providence are manifested in them as well as in the lives of the humblest of their citizens. From the height of prosperity they may be plunged into the depth of misery and degradation; or the fair record of their honor and probity may be rendered as black as night by the crimes of some who should have labored to uphold such record. From the jubilant outcries of joyous hearts and happy souls they may be compelled to turn away, and, in bitter sorrow, to pour forth wail after wail, each striving to give expression to that grief which, indeed, beggars expression. Then is heard the voice, as in Ramah in former days, "lamentation and bitter weeping; Rachael weeping for her children, refusing to be comforted for her children, because they were not." But there is a balm even for such wounded hearts, even the word of the Lord: "Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears; forthy work shall be rewarded."
