THE AUTHENTIC LIFE OF LINCOLN.
Abraham Lincoln: The True Story of a Great Life.
By William H. Herndon and Jesse W. Weik. With numerous Illustrations. New and revised edition, with an Introduction by Horace White. In two volumes, 12mo. Cloth, $3.00.
“It will always remain the authentic life of Abraham Lincoln.”—_Chicago Herald_.
“A remarkable piece of literary achievement—remarkable alike for its fidelity to facts, its fulness of details, its constructive skill, and its literary charm.”—_New York Times_.
“The three portraits of Lincoln are the best that exist; and not the least characteristic of these, the Lincoln of the Douglas debates, has never before been engraved…. Herndon’s narrative gives, as nothing else is likely to give, the material from which we may form a true picture of the man from infancy to maturity.”—_The Nation_.
“Truly, they who wish to know Lincoln as he really was must read the biography by his friend and law-partner, W. H. Herndon. This book was imperatively needed to brush aside the rank growth of myth and legend which was threatening to hide the real lineaments of Lincoln from the eyes of posterity…. There is no doubt about the faithfulness of Mr. Herndon’s delineation. The marks of unflinching veracity are patent in every line.”—_New York Sun_.
Lincoln in Story.
“A valuable and exceedingly interesting addition to Lincoln literature.”—_Brooklyn Standard-Union_.
“An excellent compilation on a subject of which the American people never grow tired.”—_Boston Transcript_.

“Accurate as well as picturesque…. Mr. Hemment has done his work well. In point of faithful realism there has thus far been nothing better in the whole war literature.”—_Boston Journal_.
“Clever and picturesque…. Over one hundred capital instantaneous photographs illustrate Mr. Hemment’s well-written record, and not the least of the book’s recommendations is the outspoken simplicity of its style, and the strong impression it makes upon the reader of being the uninfluenced evidence of an eyewitness who ‘draws the thing as he sees it’ and without exaggeration or prejudice.”—_Sunday School Times_.
Recollections of the Civil War.
By CHARLES A. DANA. With Portrait. Large 12mo. Cloth, gilt top, uncut,
$2.00.
“The book will rank among the trustworthy sources of knowledge of the civil war.”—_New York Evening Post_.
“Mr. Dana’s official position as Assistant Secretary of War while the rebellion was in progress gave him exceptional opportunities of observation which he was keen to take advantage of, while his rare gift of terse and vivid expression enabled him to record what he saw in a series of pen pictures that are little less than instantaneous photographs.
