Book Description
Excerpt from Personal Reminiscences of Abraham Lincoln At the outbreak of the Civil War, Mr. Stim mel was a student in the public schools of Co lumbus, Ohio, after which he entered the Ohio Wesleyan University. In 1 863 he was honored by being selected as one of a Company of one hundred men, to be known as the Lincoln Body guard, with headquarters near the White House in Washington. This brought Sergeant Stimmel in almost daily observation of the President, and furnished an opportunity for a study of Lincoln that fell to the lot of but few.

Book Description
Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln and Men of War-Times: Some Personal Recollections of War and Politics During the Lincoln Administration I saw Mr. Lincoln many times during his Presidential term, and, like all of the many others who had intimate relations with him, I enjoyed his confidence only within the limitations of the necessities of the occasion. I do not therefore write these chapters assuming to have been the confidant of Mr. Lincoln; but in some things I did see him as he was, and, from necessity, knew what he did and why he did it. What thus happened to come under my own observation and within my own hearing often related to men or measures of moment then and quite as momentous now, when the events of the war are about to be finally crystallized into history.

Book Description
Excerpt from Personal Recollections of Abraham Lincoln Lincoln lore has become so rich in recent years, and so voluminous withal, that he who would add to it must needs show cause why his book should be read. And yet, in spite of all that has been written, it cannot be said that we yet have a thoroughly satisfactory interpretation of the life and work and character of our First American. A few have had the necessary knowledge and sympathy, but their literary power has not always been adequate. Others have written well, but they have failed of insight and understanding. In the meantime the volume of facts, impressions, and reminiscences increases, and by assembling items from a variety of sources we are coming to a composite conception of our prophet-president that is at once vivid and satisfying.
