Lincoln stories at their best
Although this book has a section of categorized Lincoln quotes, it is more than just another collection of Lincoln stories. It includes sections of Lincoln lore and discusses the origin of the Gettysburg address. This collection makes a great start to a library about Lincoln with a wide variety of tales and quips from the famous president.
