No other narrative account of Abraham Lincoln's life has inspired such widespread and lasting acclaim as Charnwood's Abraham Lincoln: A Biography. Written by a native of England and originally published in 1916, the biography is a rare blend of beautiful prose and profound historical insight. Charnwood's study of Lincoln's statesmanship introduced generations of Americans to the life and politics of Lincoln and the author's observations are so comprehensive and well-supported that any serious study of Lincoln must respond to his conclusions. One of the most important works on Abraham Lincoln from the era when he was passing out of living memory and into history, this 1917 classic is a rich, evocative portrait of the man and how actions as a leader were shaped by his character and ideals. From its British perspective, offering a fresh angle on an American legend, to its charming readability, Charnwood's treatise, which was called, in 1947 "the best one-volume life of Lincoln ever written" by historian Benjamin Thomas remains one of the most intriguing examinations of the great president, and a keystone for understanding the evolution of Lincoln scholarship. “Lord Charnwood's remains the best Lincoln biography. It captures the interweaving of principle and prudence that makes Lincoln our most impressive and interesting political figure.” — William Kristol, The Weekly Standard “Charnwood's Lincoln is one of the clearest analyses ever attempted. It possesses an almost noble rhythm that makes it rank as literature. . . . His book sought the reasons behind Lincoln's actions and lifted the whole field of Lincoln studies to an international plane which later writers would keep in view.” -Andrew Rolle, author of Lincoln: A Contemporary Portrait “Charnwood's biography remains one of the great landmarks in Lincoln literature because of its elegant style, its transatlantic perspective, and its thoughtful, keenly investigative approach to the subject.” -Don E.Fehrenbacher “There are many Lincolns on our shelves, but Charnwood's Abraham Lincoln is still the one I reach for and read with the greatest satisfaction.” -William S. McFeely “Charnwood saw Lincoln in enlightened, universal terms, as Lincoln saw himself at his best.” -Gabor Boritt “For over fifty years I have been recommending it . . . No biography written in the intervening years . . . comes close to Charnwood in its appreciation of Lincoln's intellectual brilliance and grandeur.” -Harry V. Jaffa “It should remain robustly alive as long as readers are fascinated by the vagaries of individual character and enthralled by masterly storytelling. Those unacquainted with the book should read it. Those who have not read it recently should read it again.” -Alf J. Mapp Jr. “Though many portraits of the 16th President have been published since this first appeared in 1916, this remains one of the best.” -Library Journal “Some historians consider this to be the best of the Lincoln biographies not only because of Lord Charnwood's engaging style and transatlantic perspective, but because it was written in 1916 before various ideological and revisionist movements swept through this century.” -Booknews Abraham Lincoln - US Presidents - HISTORYcom Find out more about the history of Abraham Lincoln including videos interesting articles pictures historical features and more Get all the facts on HISTORYcom Abraham Lincoln Quotes - The Quotations Page Abraham Lincoln I am a firm believer in the people If given the truth they can be depended upon to meet any national crises The great point is to bring them the Abraham Lincoln Quotes - BrainyQuote Enjoy the best Abraham Lincoln Quotes at BrainyQuote Quotations by Abraham Lincoln American President Born February 12 1809 Share with your friends Abraham Lincoln - Biographycom Journey through the life of Abraham Lincoln the 16th US president on Biographycom Learn more about his roles in the Civil War and the Great Emancipation The History Place Presents Abraham Lincoln Illustrated chronology of Lincoln's life with key points expanded upon in short articles Abraham Lincoln - Wikipedia Abraham Lincoln was born February 12 1809 the second child of Thomas and Nancy Hanks Lincoln in a one-room log cabin on the Sinking Spring Farm near Hodgenville Abraham Lincoln whitehousegov Abraham Lincoln became the United States' 16th President in 1861 issuing the Emancipation Proclamation that declared forever free those slaves within the Confederacy Abraham Lincoln HistoryNet Facts information and articles about the life of Abraham Lincoln 16th President Of the United States Abraham Lincoln Facts Born February 12 1809 Hodgenville President Abraham Lincoln Biography - thoughtcocom Abraham Lincoln was born in Hardin County Kentucky on February 12 1809 He moved to Indiana in 1816 and lived there the rest of his youth His mother died when he The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library Foundation (ALPLF The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library Foundation (ALPLF) (Springfield Illinois) is a not-for-profit organization supporting the exhibits and programs of the
