Excerpt from The Life of Abraham Lincoln: From His Birth to His Inauguration as President In the following pages I have endeavored to give the life of Abraham Lincoln, from his birth to his inauguration as President of the United States. The reader will judge the character of the performance by the work itself: for that reason I shall spare him the perusal of much prefatory explanation. At the time of Mr. Lincoln's death, I determined to write his history, as I had in my possession much valuable material for such a purpose. I did not then imagine that any person could have better or more extensive materials than I possessed. I soon learned, however, that Mr. William H. Herndon of Springfield, III., was similarly engaged. There could be no rivalry between us; for the supreme object of both was to make the real history and character of Mr. Lincoln as well known to the public as they were to us. He deplored, as I did, the many publications pretending to be biographies which came teeming from the preson long as the public interest about Mr. Lincoln excited the hope of gain. Out of the mass of works which appeared, of one only - Dr. Holland's - is it possible to speak with any degree of respect. Early in 1869, Mr. Herndon placed at my disposal his remarkable lection of materials, - the richest, rarest, and fullest collection it was possible to conceive. Along with them came an offer of hearty co-operation, of which I have availed myself so extensively, that no art of mine would serve to conceal it. Added to my own collections, these acquisitions have enabled me to do what could not have been done before, - prepare an authentic biography of Mr. Lincoln.

Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln In 1854 began the great slavery agitation by the re peal Of the slavery prohibition Of 1820, called the Mis souri Compromise. Aroused to new activity by what he regarded as a gross breach Of political faith, Lincoln entered upon public discussions with an earnestness and force that by common consent gave him leadership Of the Opposition in Illinois, which that year elected a majority Of the legislature. This Would have secured his election to the United States Senate, in the winte1 Of 1854, to succeed Shields, a Democrat; but four Op position members, of Democratic antecedents, 1efused to vote for Lincoln, who was yet called awhig, and by their persistence compelled the election Of Trumbull. The Republican party Of Illinois was for mally organized in 1856; the campaign 1esulted substantially m a drawn battle, the Democrats gaining a majority in the State for president, while the Republicans elected the gover nor and State Officers. In 1858 the senatorial term Of Douglas, author of the repeal Of the Missouri Compro mise, was expiring, and he sought 1e election. Lincoln, who had four years before successfully met him in public debate, was'now by unanimous resolution Of the Republican State Convention designated as his rival and Opponent. Yielding to the wish of his party friends. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from From Pioneer Home to the White House: Life of Abraham Lincoln; Boyhood, Youth, Manhood, Assassination, Death HE author of this volume wrote the first Life of Abraham Lincoln - the pioneer boy, and how HE became president - which, after a very large sale, passed out of print in consequence of the destruction of the plates by fire. A Campaign Life of only thirty-two pages, relating chiefly to his public career, was issued at the West, after his nomination for the Presidency in 1860; but The Pioneer Boy was the first complete biography of the man. Dr. Holland said of it, several years later, in his Life Of Lincoln, A singularly faithful statement of the early experience of Abraham Lincoln. The materials for the Cam paign Life spoken of were furnished by Mr. Lincoln, and he very kindly directed that pamphlet, with a quantity of unused matter, to be passed into our hands, together with the names and addresses of several of his early associates, reared with him in the wilderness, and of intimate friends in later life, from whom the most valuable information, never before given to the public, was received. From these sources of knowledge The Pioneer Boy was prepared. In the preparation of this new, larger and more elab orate Life Of Lincoln, we have had, in addition to the above sources of information, others of even greater value, at least so far as his character and public services relate.

Excerpt from President Lincoln, Self-Pourtrayed The main source from which the original papers were derived, was Mr. Raymond's earlier work, the History of the Administration of President Lincoln (new York, now superseded by his Life and Public Services Of Abraham Lincoln. From this latter volume I have borrowed, with but few exceptions, the additions now introduced. An earlier article by myself, also published in Good Words, has also been appended. I need hardly say that the work in no sense pretends to be a biography Of the late Presi dent, the greater part Of whose life is known as yet only in outline to the public.
