OCLC 421189 LCCN 52006425 LC E457 .T427 1952 Dewey 973.7092 ; ISBN 9781566193603 1566193605 ; black cloth in color pictorial dustjacket ; SIGNED presentation by author Ben Thomas on front endpaper ; Long considered a classic Benjamin P. Thomas's Abraham Lincoln: A Biography takes an incisive look at one of American history's greatest figures. Originally published in 1952 to wide acclaim this eloquent account rises above previously romanticized depictions of the sixteenth president to reveal the real Lincoln: a complex shrewd and dynamic individual whose exceptional life has long intrigued the public. Thomas traces the president from his hardscrabble beginnings and early political career through his years as an Illinois lawyer and his presidency during the Civil War. Although Lincoln is appropriately placed against the backdrop of the dramatic times in which he lived the author's true focus is on Lincoln the man and his intricate personality. While Thomas pays tribute to Lincoln's many virtues and accomplishments he is careful not to dramatize a persona already larger than life in the American imagination. Instead he presents a candid and balanced representation that provides compelling insight into Lincoln's true character and the elements that forged him into an extraordinary leader. Thomas portrays Lincoln as a man whose conviction resourcefulness and inner strength enabled him to lead the nation through the most violent crossroads in its history. Thomas's direct readable narrative is concise while losing none of the crucial details of Lincoln's remarkable life. The volume's clarity of style makes it accessible to beginners but it is complex and nuanced enough to interest longtime Lincoln scholars. After more than half a century Abraham Lincoln: A Biography is still an essential source for anyone interested in learning more about the many facets of the sixteenth president and it remains the definitive single-volume work on the life of an American legend.; Contents: The short and simple annals of the poor -- Young man on his own -- Frontier legislator : his love affairs -- Courtship and marriage -- Lawyer-politician -- The gentleman from Illinois -- Echoes of national conflict -- Lincoln re-enters politics -- A political plunge -- Defeated for the senate -- The making of a president -- Peace or a sword -- A war for democracy -- Shadows on the White House -- McClellan in command -- The occasion is piled high with difficulty -- The signs look better -- There are no Lincoln men -- Profile of a president -- To bind up the nation's wounds -- Lincoln literature ; contemporary newspaper review by Carl Sandburg and an ad for the book laid inVG/VG Alfred A.

réf. 11717Ford's Theatre stereopticon view undated depicts the Washington D.C. building where John Wilkes Booth shot President Abraham Lincoln on April 14 1865 during a performance of Our American Cousin. The image belongs to the later visual commemoration of Lincoln's assassination presenting the surviving theater as a historic site for audiences encountering Civil War history through commercially produced stereoscopic imagery. Lincoln was carried from the theater to the Petersen House across the street where he died the following morning. Full color stereopticon view 6 x 3 inches captioned "Old Theater Where Lincoln Was Assassinated Washington D.C." The image is a later historical view of Ford's Theatre adapted from a photograph contemporary with the production of the stereoview rather than an image made at the time of the assassination. Printed descriptive remarks appear on the reverse. Produced for stereoscopic viewing the paired images were intended to create an illusion of depth when viewed through the appropriate optical device. Stereoscopic images circulated historic buildings landscapes and monuments to domestic and educational audiences during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries making geographically distant sites available as visual objects of study and commemoration. This example records Ford's Theatre not as the scene of the 1865 assassination itself but as a later memorialized landmark identified explicitly through its caption. Minor edge wear; otherwise very good condition. unknown books
1865réf. 127171865. Tilton Theodore editor of The Independent May 4 1865 issued this Lincoln memorial coverage nineteen days after the president's death and on the day of his burial in Springfield Illinois. Tilton edited the New York newspaper from 1863 to 1870 during a period in which its longstanding antislavery editorial position placed emancipation and the consequences of the Civil War prominently before its readers. The front page preserves contemporary Northern responses to Abraham Lincoln's assassination through both memorial verse and attention to his final public statements appearing as the country confronted presidential succession emancipation and the political consequences of Union victory. The Independent. New York. May 4 1865. One page 18 × 25 inches twice folded. The front page includes the poem "President Lincoln Dead" and the prominent central headline "The Last Word and Deed of Abraham Lincoln." Published less than three weeks after Lincoln was shot at Ford's Theatre on April 14 and died on April 15 the sheet places commemoration alongside an account of his final words and actions. Its May 4 publication date coincides with Lincoln's burial in Springfield giving the issue a particularly precise place within the national mourning that followed the assassination. Lincoln's death came only days after the surrender of Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia and before the Civil War had fully concluded while the Thirteenth Amendment abolishing slavery awaited ratification by the states. The Independent had advocated against slavery since its antebellum years making its treatment of Lincoln's death part of a newspaper history closely connected to abolitionist politics. Some spotting and tearing around the edges and at the creases not affecting the text with a small amount of paper loss from the upper right corner of the banner. Good condition overall with the principal headlines and memorial content intact. unknown books
