In 1989, The Library of America published Abraham Lincoln: Speeches and Writings, a definitive two-volume edition edited by Lincoln scholar Don E. Fehrenbacher. In the New York Times Book Review, Alfred Kazin called it a "momentous and thrilling addition to any private library." Now, twenty years later, to mark the bicentennial of Lincoln’s birth, The Library of America re-releases these volumeswith newly designed bicentennial jacketstogether with the brand new The Lincoln Anthology: Great Writers on His Life and Legacy, in an authoritative three-volume boxed set. Here is the man in full, the best that has been written by and about our greatest president.
