Lincoln: His Own Words
Last year, on the 150th anniversary of his death, I posted a selection of Lincoln's writings "chosen to highlight the unfamiliar":
  1. My Childhood’s Home I See Again
  2. Handbill Replying to Charges of Infidelity
  3. Fragment on Niagara Falls
  4. Letter to his step-brother John D. Johnston
  5. Proclamation of a National Fast Day
  6. Letter to Queen Victoria
  7. Meditation on the Divine Will
  8. Order for Sabbath Observance
  9. Reprimand of Capt. James M. Cutts
  10. Reply to Loyal Colored People of Baltimore upon Presentation of a Bible
  11. Proclamation of Thanksgiving and Prayer
  12. Letter to Quaker leader Eliza P. Gurney
  13. Reply to Notification Committee, Accepting Re-Election
  14. Letter to Republican publisher Thurlow Weed

Lincoln: His Own Words

Any thoughts?

I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice; and have received a great deal of kindness, not quite free from ridicule. I am used to it. (Letter to James H. Hackett, November 2, 1863)
