Description

Originally published in 1865, only months after the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln, this book provides an intriguing contemporary view of American society in those eventful days. This new edition of The Journeys of Abraham Lincoln contains the entire text of William T. Coggeshall's nineteenth-century work, with light updating of spelling, punctuation, and capitalization-plus a complete new index of proper names. Describing the contact Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and Maryland had with our sixteenth president, here is fascinating detail of Lincoln's life not often found in more general histories: of the crowds and processions that welcomed the president to cities and towns along the route of his preinaugural rail trip to Washington; of what was said to and by him; even of the signs and banners posted to encourage the man who faced, in his own words, "a task such as did not rest upon the Father of his Country." Lincoln's posthumous rail journey, reversing his earlier route from Springfi eld to Washington, is also recorded, relating complete funeral orations spoken over the president's remains at various stopping places. The Journeys of Abraham Lincoln will give you greater insight into the man who gave "the last full measure of devotion" for our country.
