Abraham Lincoln was one of the most gifted orators of his day, and he wielded words both to incite the American people to the cause of justice and to offer consolation to a country riven by civil war. This omnibus volume features more than fifty speeches, addresses, and letters including "The Gettysburg Address," his memorial to the American Civil War dead; the "Emancipation Proclamation," which formally ended the institution of slavery when it was signed into law on January 1, 1863; and his now famous "House Divided" speech.

This special edition features an elegantly designed cover and a durable flexible binding. It is an indispensable addition to any home history library.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Abraham Lincoln

Foi o 16.º Presidente dos Estados Unidos da América e uma das figuras políticas mais influentes da era moderna. Nascido no Kentucky numa família humilde, praticamente autodidata, tornou-se advogado, dirigente do Partido Republicano e presidente durante a Guerra Civil Americana.
Defensor da preservação da União e opositor da escravatura, liderou o país no seu período mais dramático, proclamando a emancipação dos escravos e redefinindo o significado político da liberdade e da igualdade nos Estados Unidos.
Assassinado em 1865, poucos dias após o fim da guerra, permanece como um símbolo maior da República americana.
