O knihe

"Wanting a man from New England, Lincoln took an ex-Democrat, trained in public business,
who had manifested his courage and the earnestness of his conviction by casting loose from his old associates on the question of slavery; and who also had shown a natural aptitude for politics, a quality which Mr. Lincoln, possessing it himself in a high degree, did not undervalue in others." -John T. Morse, Jr., in the Introduction, 1909
