Abraham Lincoln is consistently ranked as the greatest American by academics, historians, and ordinary Americans alike. Scholars agree that a rare combination of steadfast character, political genius, and enormous capacity for growth enabled him to effectively lead the nation through the most tumultuous time in its history. Abraham Lincoln: His Essential Wisdom gathers hundreds of quotations from Lincoln's letters, speeches, and other writings. The selections are arranged in categories that reflect the stages of Lincoln's life - from his early years on the frontiers of Kentucky and Indiana through his rise to prominence in law and politics in Illinois to his presidency. In early love letters, Lincoln revels his desire for domestic tranquility. In impassioned communications with friends, he attacks the institution of slavery and its further extension. In telegrams to his generals, his political savvy is revealed in language that is both diplomatic and to the point. In letters to his wife, he proves to be a soothing husband, as well as a doting father to his "dear rascals." The book also includes the entire text of such landmark speeches as the Gettysburg Address and the Second Inaugural Address, in which Lincoln's words gave hope and solace to a nation torn apart. In addition to Lincoln's own words, readers will find a harvest of quotations and anecdotes about the man from his family, friends, and colleagues, as well as excerpts from those who paid heartfelt tribute to him at the time of his death - eulogies that extol the man and still resonate today.

Here, too, are candid excerpts from correspondence in which they express fears about the perilous times they face, and their hopes for a brighter future.

The Wit and Wisdom of Ronald Reagan invites you to revisit the words of our fortieth president-a man who left an indelible mark on the world over the course of his eight years in office. From humble beginnings, Ronald Reagan struggled through the Great Depression and carved out successful careers as a radio broadcaster and Hollywood star before entering the world of public service at the age of fifty-three. But politics was a lifelong passion for Reagan, and by the time he launched his political career in the mid-sixties, he had developed a clear vision of what was needed to revitalize America and to restore the country's confidence. Both as the governor of California and as the president of the United States, Reagan's unparalleled ability to communicate his vision to millions of Americans and to maintain a keen focus on the goals of his administration have been described as leadership at its best.
