Description
Excerpt from Personal Reminiscences: 1840 1890; Including Some Not Hitherto Published of Lincoln and the War
IF the opinion of a large body of correspondents is reliable, the read mg - public have derived some pleas ure from my Recollections of President Lincoln and his Administration. The chief attraction of that book must lie in its great central figure. If, as these correspondents claim, it has other merits, I think they are comprised in the fact that the subjects are personal, and each is treated separately in a chapter of no great length. It was also my purpose to describe persons and events Without exaggeration or prejudice, just as they appeared to me at the time.
