New York: Wise-Parslow Company Publishers. Name in ink on free front endpaper. A tight, clean very good copy.. Bernard Wall's greatest achievement is his eighty-five volume series called Following Abraham Lincoln. For eleven years he followed the footsteps of our great war President in his travels, making etchings - several hundred of them- of the Lincoln landmarks in America. These were etched on copper plates and printed on a hand press by the artist at Lime Rock. It was a big undertaking. Had it not been a labor of love, it is doubtful that Mr. Wall could have carried the work through to completion. . . .While visiting the Lincoln shrines Mr. Wall gathered together intimate glimpses from people in the various communities, that reveal the true character of Lincoln. This popular edition of Mr. Wall's monumental work includes reproductions of his etchings and the gathered stories that are an unfailing source of inspiration.

All in very good condition, all but one addressed with notes, postmarked 1909-1914.
