Carl Sandburg

Hardcover (Galahad, Dec. 31, 1899)

Civil War and history buffs--as well as all lovers of fine writing--will delight in the detail and accuracy of Carl Sandburg's definitive, best-known biography of "Honest Abe". Representing a lifetime of study by the great American poet, Abraham Lincoln: The Prairie Years and The War Years distills Sandburg's monumental six volume set into a single one-book edition. By gleaning every possible reference from history, literature, and popular lore, Sandburg successfully captures not only the legendary president, but also Lincoln the man. He reveals exactly who Lincoln was, and what forces in his life shaped his personality. More than 100 black-and-white historical photographs and linecuts show Lincoln himself, the places he went, and the people who knew him.

Hardcover (Harcourt, Brace & World, Inc, March 15, 1954)

This 762-page hardcover was published in 1954 by Harcourt. This is a one-volume edition. There is no dustcover, however, the deep red hardcover is very nice. There is minimal shelving wear, with very slight bumping along edges, with a slight fading on the spine. The gold lettering on the face and spine is very good. The pages appear clean and unmarked, with a previous owner's name plate on inside cover. The binding is solid and flexible. Overall, a very nice conditioned volume.
