description: Excerpt from Lincoln at GettysburgBooks about Lincoln at Gettysburg are abundant and Of value. Most Of them relate at first hand the recollections of their authors who were present at Gettysburg and heard Lincoln there. My debt to these books is apparent in the pages that follow and is here further acknowledged. Prob ably there will never be any more books of that character. It is well that we have as many as we now possess. But no such book, however honest, tells or can tell the whole story, and that is what the present work undertakes to do. This undertaking involves the assembling of material and sitting in critical judgment upon it, a process far more difficult than most readers will be able to realize.
