 in his own hand, with the purpose in view of giving to a e nstituent who hac 

 asked Lincoln for a statement ot his attitude on the ques^:jn of the legality 01 

 slave-holding, a concise summary of his views and the position he had taken. Il 

 has the same value for us now and remains for everyone an important documenl

 The Life of Napoleon 



With a Sketch of JOSEPHINE 



TO her ,w Short Life of Napoleon," Miss Tarbell now joins a sketch oi 

 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 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 ot Napoleon. The pictures are also most interesting; few ot them have ever 

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