O knihe

Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln

If ever man, says the British Standard, was fitted for such an enterprise, it was he; he was wanting in no gift or grace, despite his peasant-like plainness, required for the proper discharge of his duties. Even his alleged defects were special qualifications for it. The enemy he was re quired to grapple with found him at all points prepared, and in every instance he was victor. He never took a false step of the slightest moment in 'his career. His prudence and moderation preserved him from falling when men of another mould and of a more shining exterior, might have been caught in the traps and snares of a subtle and vigilant adversary. Abraham Lincoln has found a renown that will last, unim paired, through a hundred generations. This work was the greatest known to modern story, and it will form by far the most momentous chapter in the chronicles of the age.
