Book Description
Excerpt from Lincoln Day by Day; A Chronology, 1809-1865, Vol. 1: 1809-1848 Today, a century and a half after his birth, the magic of the man has no geographical boundary. The echo of his thoughts is heard in many lands; his strength of purpose remains vigorously alive wherever people, throwing off the many guises of human oppression, struggle toward the self-deter mination that he described so beautifully upon a hillside at Gettysburg. In life, to those who knew and loved him best, Lincoln often seemed an enigma. His devoted partner, William Herndon, once described him as the most secretive, reticent, shut-mouthed man that ever lived; and his first biographer, Josiah G. Holland, could not disguise a certain irritation with Lincoln as a subject: He rarely showed more than one aspect of himself to one man. He opened himself to men in different directions. When Holland told the story of Lincoln's drawing a New Testament from his breast and avowing that here was the rock on which I stand, Herndon was beside himself with disgust; on the question of Mr. Lincoln's religion, Herndon intended to tell the truth about an infidel - a Deist who sometimes in his fits of melancholy was an atheist. So argued two who knew Lincoln personally; later biographers, examining the record were not so confused. Of the Second Inaugural, Lord Charnwood said: Prob ably no other speech of a modern statesman uses so unreservedly thelanguage of intense religious feeling. And Charnwood believed that he knew why Lincoln attained this distinction: This man had stood alone in the dark. He had done justice; he had loved mercy; he had walked humbly with his God. Where does one turn for the truth about Mr. Lincoln - or, perhaps more realistically, for the approximate truth? To distinguish history from myth, fact from prejudice, or even a genuine document from a forgery would be a task of considerable perplexity were it not for two contributions to historical scholarship for which the present generation must be long remembered. The first of these achievements was the publication in 1953, under the general editorship of Dr. Roy P. Basler, of The Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln. The happy decision of the Lincoln Sesquicentennial Commission to support the compilation and publication of the present three volumes of this chronology adds the other accomplishment. The two works, following the same texts for Lincoln's writing and speeches and employing the same symbols for identifying manuscript sources, are designed to be used together, yet each makes its own distinct (and, in some respects, unique) contribution to our understanding of the man and his age.

Book Description
Excerpt from The History of Abraham Lincoln, and the Overthrow of Slavery If he has been able to aid to any extent, the American people to a better understanding, and to a fuller and more just appreciation of the moral and intellectual character of Mr. Lincoln, and the means by which slavery has been overthrown and the slaveholders' rebellion subdued, he will be amply rewarded for the labor bestowed. In regard to the truthfulness and impartiality of the work, the author will only say that, while acknowledging frankly that all his convictions and sympathies have been with the cause of liberty and loyalty, he has not, consciously, done injustice to any.
