Lincoln's writings are testaments of our history, windows into his enigmatic personality, and resonant examples of the writer's art. \u003ci\u003eThe Portable Abraham Lincoln\u003c\/i\u003e contains the great public speeches - the first debate with Stephen Douglas, the \"House Divided\" speech, the Gettysburg Address, the Second Inaugural Address - along with less familiar letters and memoranda that chart Lincoln's political career, his evolving stand against slavery, and his day-to-day conduct of the Civil War. This edition includes a revised introduction, updated notes on the text, a chronology of Lincoln's life, and four new selections of his writing.\u003cp\u003eFor more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
