It then delves into his adult life, including his marriage to Mary Todd, his political career, and his presidency. Hill examines Lincoln's speeches and writings, including his famous Second Inaugural Address, to show how his faith informed his views on slavery, war, and the role of government.Throughout the book, Hill also includes anecdotes and stories about Lincoln's personal life, such as his habit of reading the Bible every morning and his visits to soldiers in hospitals during the war. He also discusses the various interpretations of Lincoln's faith by historians and scholars.Overall, Abraham Lincoln: Man of God provides a comprehensive look at Lincoln's religious beliefs and how they shaped his presidency and legacy. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the life and times of one of America's greatest leaders.1920. Dr. Hill's present work brings Lincoln before us as a man, splendid in his strength of purpose, unshaken by popular clamor, humane, sympathetic, and farseeing; a man who understood and appreciated the problems of life, the passions and the weaknesses of his fellow men, strong because of his trials and triumphs; a great leader - so great as to be without jealousy; humble, because of his knowledge and experience, forgetful of self in his desire to best serve his country and mankind.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
