Originally published in 1909, Footprints of Abraham Lincoln is an interesting biography of the president, which cites many of Lincoln's letters. This volume can hardly claim the dignity of a biography, for many important facts in the life of Mr. Lincoln are omitted, the object being to set forth some unpublished facts, reminiscences, and illustrations to supplement larger histories written by others. The author referred to some well-known facts in order to properly connect the new material never before in print, yet, in some instances, containing corrections in some matters of Lincoln history which later and more authentic information has revealed. The illustrations were secured mainly for this publication, and none, so far as I know, except the frontispiece, has ever appeared in any other book on Lincoln.
