Excerpt from Union and Anti-Slavery Speeches: Delivered During the Rebellion IT is with no reluctance that I have acceded to the suggestions of friends in the publication of this book; nor is any apology deemed necessary for its appearance. It contains the fruits of the most earnest labor of my life, and speaks the supreme con victions of my judgment and conscience, and the intense emotions of my heart, concerning the terrible struggle through which our country is now passing. If I know myself in any tolerable degree, that labor has been prompted solely by a sense of patri otic duty, regardless of consequences to myself. It has, bindeed, been a labor of love for my country, for Truth, Liberty, and Humanity. I know no valid reason why the utterances owing from it, which, in a greater or less degree, secured attention in almost every part of the loyal States, at the time they appeared in the public journals of the day, should not, in a more perma nent form, continue to have such measure of in uence as their arguments and appeals are capable of exerting. My only regret is, that I could not have thrown into them a hundredfold greater power. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The complete text of one of the most important speeches in American history, delivered by President Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War. On November 19, 1863, Abraham Lincoln arrived at the battlefield near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to remember not only the grim bloodshed that had just occurred there, but also to remember the American ideals that were being put to the ultimate test by the Civil War. A rousing appeal to the nation’s better angels, The Gettysburg Address remains an inspiring vision of the United States as a country “conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.”
