The Gettysburg Address and Other Works

Abraham Lincoln was one of the most gifted orators of his day, and he wielded words both to incite the American people to the cause of justice and to offer consolation to a country riven by civil war. This omnibus volume features more than fifty speeches, addresses, and letters including “The Gettysburg Address,” his memorial to the American Civil War dead; the “Emancipation Proclamation,” which formally ended the institution of slavery when it was signed into law on January 1, 1863; and his now famous “House Divided” speech.

This special edition features an elegantly designed cover and a durable flexible binding. It is an indispensable addition to any home history library.
