Stefan Lorant's Life of Abraham Lincoln

[Joe Di Cola]

I, too, have that SIGNET paperback plus each of the folio-size "Lincoln: His Life in Photographs" (1941), "Lincoln: A Picture Story of His Life" (1952) --the first Lincoln book received from my parents for Christmas 1952, and "Lincoln: A Picture Story of His Life" (1969). Lorant's books were some of the best on Lincoln photographs, eventually exceeded by Lloyd Ostendorf's "Lincoln in Photographs: An Album of Every Known Pose"--although, artistically and in terms of biography, I feel the Lorant books are better.
