FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This history of President Lincolns early life details the law partners he worked with prior to his election to high office, and how his practice took on and were retained for legal cases.Published in 1930, following the discovery of new, hitherto unseen material concerning Lincolns early life as a lawyer, this short yet insightful account contains several correspondences. These demonstrate the sound and logical mind of Lincoln and his colleagues, the courtesy shown to the court and to clients, and the high standards of professionalism to which Abraham Lincoln consistently subscribed.The reputation and value of Lincolns law practices are reflected in the long list of cases for which his services were retained. It is clear that via positive word of mouth in the business communities of Illinois; the attorneys were sought-after. Particular attention is given to Lincolns partner Ward Hill Lamon, a heavy-set lawyer who would later serve as President Lincolns bodyguard, who was one of the earliest partners Lincoln had.Even the office boys and assistants at Lincolns small law firm would go onto achieve success. One Henry C. Whitney went on to become a government surveyor, and his recollections of Lincoln were to become a useful source for later historians. It is shown that Abe Lincoln had a fondness for the apprentices he took in his employ; in future years, he would personally assist their families as additional thanks for their diligent service.
