Lincoln Discussion Symposium

Many thanks to Kieran McAuliffe for sending this information.

A new edition of The Photographs of Abraham Lincoln is being published by the German company, Steidl.

Sounds like a great book. I wonder if it contains any new Lincoln photograps not in previous works.

Bill, I do not think so. I do not think it contains any "new discoveries."

Looks nice. I wonder if they have taken previous photo's and enhanced the quality?

My two favorite "photography" books on Abraham Lincoln are
"Lincoln" by Stefan Lorant (the 1969 edition) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0393074...e=UTF8&me=

and "Lincoln: An Illustrated Biography" by Philip Kunhardt
http://www.amazon.com/Lincoln-Illustrate...QJNPTXCT8P

if you don't have either one, a nice used copy is affordable. The Lorant book is a little older than the one by Kunhardt, and if I had to pick only one, I'd choose Kunhardt's. The are both very good.
