Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln: The People's Leader in the Struggle for National Existence
ON the twelfth of February, 1909, the hun dredth anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln, Americans gathered together, through out the entire Country, to honour the memory of a great American, one who may come to be accepted as the greatest of Americans. It was in every way fitting that this honour should be rendered to Abraham Lincoln and that, on such commemoration day, his fellow-citizens should not fail to bear also in honoured memory the thousands of other good Americans who like Lincoln gave their lives for their country and without whose loyal devotion Lincoln's leadership would have been in vain.
