Books on Travel and Science Rated Tops
In Survey of New Library Reading Trends
By Sum Bouchord

The reading trend in Washing
tons IA public libraries has changed
from escape material" heavily in
demand during the war, to tourist
information.
Readers are crowding the libraries
in search of data to help plan the
long delayed vacation. Some want
more knowledge of countries they
visited during the war, with the
thought Of returning to it.
The library has also noticed that
more people use the reading halls

shortage is blamed for that
People can't read at home because
of unsatisfactory living conditions,
students can't concentrate in the

Biographies Whet Interest in Lincoln
Documents Soon to Be Revealed Here

THE LINCOLN READER
Edited by Paul M. Angle. (Rut-
gers University Press: $3.75.)
MEET ABRAHAM LINCOLN
BY G. Lynn Sumner. Harper G.
Bros. Publishers; $780,
Reviewed by
HELEN ANNE HILKER,
Information Assistant, the Library
of Congress.
Two new Lincoln biographies,
sharply contrasting in purpose and
nature, highhght year already
marked for historical excitement in
Lincolniana.
"The Lincoln Reader" edited by
Paul M. Angle, is a scholars de-
light. G. Lynn Summers thin
volume, Meet Abraham Lincoln, is
written for the uninitiated in the
field of Lincoln lore. Both under
score interest IN July 26, 1947, long
awaited date when the Library of
Congress may open to the public
for the first time some $4,000 Lin
coin documents kept secret by his
son.
1.-THE Lincoln Reader" looks at
first glance like miscellany of ex-
cerpts from all the well-known and
lesser known Lincoln writers. In
stead, the selections unfold surpris-
ingly in one smooth flowing, cfarono-
logical story. Angles own interpre-
tation add conference to q new sort
Of Reader" that is q unique contri-
button to Lincoln materials.
That quality is no accident but
the result Of brilliant editing and a
full knowledge Of the subject. Angie,
a prominent Lincoln biographer on
his own and with Carl Sandburg,
made his exacting choice Of 1877 pas
sages from hundreds Of possibilities.
Result-an unusual perspective that
takes the great man of his legen-
day pedestal and looks at him,
warm and laughable and pathetic,
in his development from log rolling
politician to martyr.
The Painful Growth.
Loss of the pedestal is no loss
to Lincoln. The simplified halo
which legend sets on the homely
head adds nothing to the actual
story. Angles book does not spare
the picture of the rude background
of poverty, the painful lack of edu-
cation. the slow and difficult mas
tering Of backwoods legal training,
and the log-rolling record Of Lin
coin in the Illinois Legislature. His
undistinguished term as Whig Con-
gresham is not glorif1ed and no
melodrama is made of his political
views on slavery. What emerges,
with sympathy, but with realism,
is the painful growth of this ILL
equipped man to a patient, far-see-
ing statesman.
Angle chose the majority Of his
passages from Lincoln's contem-
poraries. Carl Schurz, Lincoln's rel
atives, members of his cabinet and
newspapermen Of the era present
the story with many others as it
looked at the time. Carl Sandburg,
Ida Tarbell and Angle himself give
the perspective of later days.
Neither the variety in writing
