Paperback. Condition: Good. This DSI edition contains all 3 Volumes in one binding. The type was reset for a clean look and appearance. The object of this work is to deal with Mr. Lincoln individually and domestically: as lawyer, as citizen, as statesman. Special attention is given to the history of his youth and early manhood, and while dwelling on this portion of his life the liberty is taken to insert many things that would be omitted or suppressed in other places. The endeavor is to keep Lincoln in sight all the time, to cling close to his side all the way through - leaving to others the more comprehensive task of writing a history of his times. I have no theory of his life to establish or destroy. Mr. Lincoln was my warm devoted friend. - William H. Herndon Springfield, Illinois, 1888 This Edition contains the following Appendix and A Full Index APENDIX. Unpublished Family Letters 613 An Incident on the Circuit 619 Lincoln's Fellow Lawyers 620 The Truce with Douglas. - Testimony of Irwin 621 The Bloomington Convention. 621 An Office Discussion. - Lincoln's Idea of War 622 Lincoln and the Know-Nothings 623 Lincoln's Views on the Rights of Suffrage 625 The Burial of the Assassin Booth 625 A Tribute to Lincoln by a Colleague at the Bar 626 INDEX 629.…

A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.The spine remains undamaged. William H. Herndon aspired to write a faithful portrait of his friend and law partner, Abraham Lincoln, based on his own observations and on hundreds of letters and interviews he had compiled for the purpose. Even more import ant, he was determined to present Lincoln as a man, rather than a saint, an d to reveal things that the prevailing Victorian conventions said should be left out of the biography of a great national hero. A variety of obstacles kept Herndon from writing his book, however, and not until he found a collaborator in Jesse W. Weik did the biography begin to take shape. It finally appeared in 1889, to decidedly mixed reviews. Though controversial from the outset, Herndon's Lincoln nonetheless established itself as a classic, and remains, as Don E. Fehrenbacher declared, "the most influential biography of Lincoln ever published." This new edition restores the original text, includes two chapters added in the revised (1892) edition, and traces the history of how Herndon and his collaborator, after many delays, produced one of the landmark biographies in American letters. Extensive annotation affords the reader a detailed look at the biography's sources.…
