The book compiles significant essays, orations, poetry, and writings related to Abraham Lincoln, intended to provide a comprehensive view of his life and legacy. Through various contributions, it aims to honor Lincoln's impact on American history and culture, particularly on the celebration of his birthday as a national holiday. The opening of the anthology introduces the premise of the work, emphasizing the vast literature produced about Abraham Lincoln. It outlines the editor's goal of unifying the scattered writings that celebrate Lincoln's life and accomplishments, presenting them as a source of inspiration, particularly for youth. The initial sections feature autobiographical sketches and brief accounts of Lincoln's early life, education, character, and the formative experiences that shaped him into a prominent national figure.
