i Two Important Biographies by MISS IDA M. TAR BELL 



| The Life of Abraham Lincoln 



J "We here have Abraham Lincoln the Man described and not Abraham 



* Lincoln the President. A perusal of the volume leaves a very satisfied feeling. 

 » It makes our hearts warm more than ever toward that homelv figure and the 



* homelv speech. The man Lincoln seems to loom up more prominently than 

 y ever from the midst of his contemporaries as the great central figure of his gener- 

 \ ation. We see him freed from many of the mists which seemed to surround his 



* early life. We note with pleasure the explanation of many points in his life which 

 ^ before were not satisfactorily understood." — The New York Times.

♦ The Life of Napoleon 



y 



% WITH A SKETCH OF JOSEPHINE 



* To her " Short Life of Napoleon," Miss Tarbell now joins a sketch 

 » of Josephine. The new light which has been thrown on Josephine's 

 £ character and career by the recent publication of numerous memoirs, 



* has not been overlooked in preparing this life. It aims to present 

 » Josephine frankly yet sympathetically. The elaborate illustrations which 

 J distinguished the former edition of the Life of Napoleon will be preserved 



* in the present edition. 



» " I desire to congratulate you," writes John C. Ropes, "on having furnished 



* the public with such a complete and impartial, as well as interesting and attractive, 

 ^ Life of Napoleon. The pictures are also most interesting; iew of them have 



* 

 * 



ever before been put within reach of the general reader, at least not in such a fine 



* setting." # /V /,/ v Ul U5trate d. Cloth, \zmo. $2.00.
