Excerpt from Latest Light on Abraham Lincoln, Vol. 1: And War-Time Memories Including Many Heretofore Unpublished Incidents and Historical Facts Concerning His Ancestry, Boyhood, Family, Religion, Public Life, Trials and Triumphs; Illustrated With Many Reproductions From Original Paintings, Photographs, Etc "Let American High Schools teach at least one year of Lincoln. Teaching the use of the English language is one of the prime objects of public school instruction. Lincoln was one of the masters of English. His simple, luminous sentences, which go as straight as bullets are models for the pupil which cannot be improved upon. School instruction seeks to form and strengthen a pupil's reasoning powers. To follow Lincoln's mind through his great controversies is an education in reasoning that no classical example can surpass. "It is high time he became a staple of American education. His collected writings and speeches not only contain the soul of the American story but are highly worth reading simply as literature - as the picture of a mind slowly evolving out of apparent common-place into supreme greatness, and so leading a people through a great crisis."
