Perhaps no other American president is as revered as Abraham Lincoln, whose strong faith and moral courage inspired a nation, and whose timeless words of common sense continue to influence men and... This description may be from another edition of this product.
If you're familiar with the little book that Lincoln carried, which has been published several times--including under the title, "Lincoln's Devotional," by Carl Sandburg--you will find this to be a worthy build on that little book. The original takes verses from the Bible and adds small bits of related prose and poetry of the day. Freiling takes this work and adds little stories from Lincoln's life to illustrate the verse. Even if you already own Lincoln's Devotional, you will find the additional vinettes interesting. This book is not intended to be a scholarly work that explains Lincoln's faith. Rather it accomplishes what its subtitle suggests: "Moments of Faith with America's Favorite President." I have over 150 books related to Lincoln and this one is a favorite of mine. It is meant to be read one page at a time--that is, one page per day. Read it that way and you won't be disappointed.
