520			_a"Noted Speeches of Abraham Lincoln, Including the Lincoln-Douglas Debate" by Lilian Marie Briggs is a historical collection of significant speeches written in the early 20th century. The volume includes some of Lincoln's most renowned orations such as the Gettysburg Address, the Cooper Institute Speech, and addresses from the Lincoln-Douglas debates, providing a vital look into the political climate of Lincoln's time and his evolving views on slavery and national unity. The opening of this compilation presents a foreword that explains the purpose of the series, emphasizing the importance of preserving key American speeches for educational purposes. It offers a biographical sketch of Abraham Lincoln that outlines his humble beginnings, his ascent in politics, and key milestones leading to his presidency. Additionally, the introduction sets the stage for understanding his speeches in the context of the American Civil War and the debate over slavery, laying a foundation for the debates that would unfold in the chapters to follow. The stage is thus prepared for a thoughtful engagement with Lincoln's rhetoric, showcasing his arguments against the extension of slavery and the preservation of the Union, which are urgent themes of the era.
