Book Description
Excerpt from Check List of Lincolniana: In the Journals and Publications of the Illinois State Historical Society, 1899-1938 The figure of Abraham Lincoln so dominated the history of Illinois during the nineteenth century that the consideration of his life apart from the history of the State of Illinois is almost impossible. Consequently, in preparing a selective check list of Lincoln material in the publications of the Illinois State Historical Society, complete separa tion of the two subjects was found to be difficult. We have, however, tried to confine the references to individuals and events having a direct bearing on the life of Lincoln. Articles which are wholly given to this subject were chosen for inclusion, and isolated references were excluded except where, in the opinion of the compiler, they seemed important. This was necessary in order to eliminate needless bulk and to obtain greater usefulness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
