A compilation of sixty-five authors and an Editor from the Chicago Historical Society, composing a biography of Lincoln. Essays by the prominent biographers--Carl Sandburg, Ida Tarbell, Lord Charnwood, Albert Beveridge, Willie Herndon (law partner), John Nicolay, and John Hay--are all represented. With detailed Index. ( ) This was one of the first Lincoln books I read, and it really spurred me to read even more about him. This is kind of a 'Readers Digest' of stories about Lincoln from his childhood through the war. It includes mostly interesting stories and omits things that are seemingly in every Lincoln book ever written. Great choice for someone who wants to know more about Lincoln.

Distincions
The Lincoln Reader is a biography of Abraham Lincoln written by sixty-five authors. Paul Angle, the noted Lincoln scholar, selected passages from the works on contemporaries, later biographers, and even Lincoln himself, to form a composite portrait of one of the wisest and most beloved American presidents. These passages, interwoven by Angle's running commentary, blend into a single vivid narrative of Lincoln's life, from his boyhood in Indiana to his assassination and funeral. First published in 1947, The Lincoln Reader has long been considered the most definitive, complete, and authentic retelling of the life of Abraham Lincoln No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
