"Why We Love Lincoln" by James Creelman is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the profound admiration the American people hold for Abraham Lincoln, reflecting on his character, achievements, and the contexts of his life. It delves into the reasons behind the nation's enduring love for Lincoln, emphasizing his rise from humble beginnings to become a symbol of hope and integrity in American history. The opening of the work sets the stage for a vibrant celebration of Lincoln's legacy, particularly as the nation prepares to commemorate the centennial of his birth. It highlights Lincoln's unique ability to evoke deep affection, transcending mere political enthusiasm, contrasting him with other historical figures. The narrative introduces Lincoln's early life, from his impoverished upbringing and lack of formal education to his emergence as a self-taught, remarkably principled leader. This portrayal invites readers to reflect on Lincoln's character traits—simplicity, kindness, ambition, and justice—as key elements that resonate with the American spirit and contribute to the veneration of his memory.
