Lincoln Letters by Abraham Lincoln
"Lincoln Letters" by Abraham Lincoln is a collection of correspondence written in the 19th century, specifically during the turbulent years of the American Civil War and preceding years. This book captures the insights and character of Lincoln through his personal letters, which address both familial matters and pressing national issues of the time. The letters within this collection reveal Lincoln's thoughts, values, and decision-making processes. For example, a letter to his father
expresses a blend of financial assistance and advice on personal responsibility, urging him to work diligently rather than relying on aid. Another notable correspondence is addressed to General Grant, showcasing Lincoln's support for his military strategies during the Civil War, emphasizing trust and encouragement.
