"A portrait that helps us to understand better than ever before the manner of man 

 Abiaham Lincoln was. . . . A narrative that is so intimate in its revelations as tins of 

 Miss Tarbell's helps us to realize that, with all his greatness, Abraham Lincoln was cast 

 in the mold of our common humanity. . . . Her work presents a portrait of the man 

 that no student of history can afford to miss, for it is ver\' human, and does full justice 

 to that homely side of Lincoln's character which has done more than anything else to 

 give him a hero's j)lace in the hearts of the common people." — Brooklyn Eagle.
