About This Item
Toronto, Ont: The Copp Clark Publishing Company. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1927. Paperback. Red textured soft cover copy with yellow lettering on spine and cover, part of the School Edition seires of the 20s. Nice, clean interior with a solid binding. Some edgewear with a slight turnup of the corners, a little wear on the spine end. "Drinkwater writes in the Note: In using for purposes of drama a personality so wide and recent a fame as that of Abraham Lincoln, I feel that one or two observations are due to my readers and critics. First my purpose is that not of the historian but of the dramatist. The historical presentation of my hero has been faithfully made in many volumes...Secondly, my purpose is, again, that of the dramatist, not that of the political philosopher...My concern is with the profoundly dramatic interest of his character and with the inspiring example of a man who handled war nobly and with imagination." ; 16mo 6" - 7" tall; 130 pages .
