Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most courageous and esteemed presidents of the United States of America, Abraham Lincoln is known mainly for abolishing slavery and his leadership during the Civil War. He grew up in a single-room log cabin on the Sinking Spring Farm in Hardin County, Kentucky. His mother died when he was nine, and his relationship with his father was often strained. He had an insatiable desire to learn, which his stepmother nurtured by encouraging young Abe to read. Though he had only a year of formal education, he could read any book he got his hands on. Lincoln was admitted to the Illinois bar in 1836, and later became a congressman for the same state. He served as president from March 1861 until his assassination at the hands of John Wilkes Booth in 1864. This book tells the story of a young boy who grew up to become one of the most important leaders in American history.

Book Synopsis The Dark Days of Abraham Lincoln's Widow, as Revealed by Her Own Letters by : Myra Helmer Pritchard
Download or read book The Dark Days of Abraham Lincoln's Widow, as Revealed by Her Own Letters written by Myra Helmer Pritchard and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2011-02-10 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in 1927 but barred from timely publication by the Lincoln family, The Dark Days of Abraham Lincoln's Widow, as Revealed by Her Own Letters is based on nearly two dozen intimate letters written between Mary Lincoln and her close friend Myra Bradwell mainly during the former's 1875 incarceration in an insane asylum. By the 1920s most accounts of Mrs. Lincoln focused on her negative qualities and dismissed her as "crazy." Bradwell's granddaughter Myra Helmer Pritchard wrote this distinctly sympathetic manuscript at the behest of her mother, who wished to vindicate Mary Lincoln in the public eye by printing the private correspondence. Pritchard fervently defends Mrs. Lincoln's conduct and sanity, arguing that she was not insane but rather the victim of an overzealous son who had his mother committed. The manuscript and letters were thought to have been destroyed, but fortunately the Lincolns' family lawyer stored copies in a trunk, where historian Jason Emerson discovered them in 2005. While leaving the manuscript intact, Emerson has enhanced it with an introduction and detailed annotations. He fills in factual gaps; provides background on names, places, and dates; and analyzes Pritchard's interpretations, making clear where she was right and where her passion to protect Mrs. Lincoln led to less than meticulous research and incorrect conclusions. This volume features an easy-to-follow format that showcases Pritchard's text on the left-hand pages and Emerson's insightful annotations on the right-hand pages. Following one of the most revered and reviled, famous and infamous of the First Ladies, this book provides a unique perspective of Mrs. Lincoln's post-White House years, with an emphasis on her commitment to a sanitarium. Emerson's contributions make this volume a valuable addition to the study of the Lincoln family. This fascinating work gives today's Lincoln enthusiasts the chance to read this intriguing interpretation of the former First Lady that predates nearly every other book written about her.

Download or read book Lincoln's Greatest Case: The River, the Bridge, and the Making of America written by Brian McGinty and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-02-09 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The untold story of how one sensational trial propelled a self-taught lawyer and a future president into the national spotlight. In May of 1856, the steamboat Effie Afton barreled into a pillar of the Rock Island Bridge, unalterably changing the course of American transportation history. Within a year, long-simmering tensions between powerful steamboat interests and burgeoning railroads exploded, and the nation’s attention, absorbed by the Dred Scott case, was riveted by a new civil trial. Dramatically reenacting the Effie Afton case—from its unlikely inception, complete with a young Abraham Lincoln’s soaring oratory, to the controversial finale—this “masterful” (Christian Science Monitor) account gives us the previously untold story of how one sensational trial propelled a self-taught lawyer and a future president into the national spotlight.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Abraham Lincoln: Or the Journey From the Log Cabin to the White House During the summer of 1891 "The Abraham Lincoln Log Cabin Association" of which I was president, elected Mrs. Eleanor Gridley as secretary and literary editor of the organization. She was sent into Coles County, Ills., where the Lincoln family lived, for the purpose of collecting Lincoln relics and of obtaining such authentic and historical facts as might be gathered from relatives, neighbors and associates of the martyred President. During her stay there she boarded with Mr. John Hall, a cousin of Abraham Lincoln, and at that time owner of the Lincoln homestead. Here she remained several weeks, in sight of, and making daily trips to the "old log cabin" and spent much time interviewing the people who came from the country about to tell of their acquaintance with Mr. Lincoln and his people. I take great pleasure in saying that Mrs. Gridley did her work faithfully and to the entire satisfaction of all members of the organization. The unique and original manner in which she has interblended pathetic, humorous and homely incidents in her book, makes the story "From the Log Cabin to the White House" one of great interest and rare value.
