Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lincoln: By Friend and Foe
Brooks himself wrote me, years ago, that the Century Papers, republished in the volume Washington in Lincoln's Time, were the fullest record of his days with the President. From them I have quoted the vital passage relating to the composition of the Gettysburg address.
