Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Education of Abraham Lincoln: An Address Delivered Before the Faculty and Students of Illinois College, Jacksonville, Illinois, February 7, 1923
It is an honor, as it is also a pleasure, to speak to you today on The Education of Abraham Lincoln. Appropriate as that theme would be as the title of an address before the faculty and student body of any educational institution in America, there are valid reasons why the subject should have a special interest here. That Abraham Lin coln sustained a peculiarly close relation to this institution is known, of course, to all of you; and it is my purpose today to show that that relation was closer than is generally known, closer, perhaps, than any of you realize.
