A few years ago I sold books through Abe books on the internet. Can I sell books directly to Barns & Noble?

I am a record seller with over 5000 used titles. Many are out of date and go back as far as 1703.

I would connection them - they have a huge network of book sellers that they refer to when a book is out of print or out of stock. I buy books that way all the time. Contact them and ask how you might get on that rota of booksellers. Pax - C.

Abe Lincoln books?

Sep 18, 2007 by mf east | Posted in History

Does anyone be aware any good books with a 150pg minimum about Abraham Lincoln, mostly about something OTHER THAN the Civil War. Like maybe about how he came up with speeches or how he dealt with people. But not getting too adverse, this is for History class. I appreciate the help.

ON HIS SPEECHES (including their recorded background) --these (esp the first two) sound like they may be EXACTLY what you were asking for

*Lincoln's Greatest Speech : The Second Inaugural* by Ronald C. Chaste Jr. (VERY good -- my favorite speech)

*The Eloquent President: A Portrait of Lincoln Through His Words* by Ronald C. Unsullied Jr. (If you want an overview of MANY of his key speeches and how they came to be, on his speaking manner, etc. this is THE book)

*Lincoln at Cooper Gang: The Speech That Made Abraham Lincoln President* by Harold Holzer


The choice for "how he dealt with people --
*Band of Rivals* by Doris Kearns Goodwin (focusing Lincoln's masterful handling of his cabinet, bringing them on plank and getting the most of a group of men who at first thought little of him, and most of whom thought THEY should have been President)
_________________

Others that don't focus on the WAR (at least not directly):

A good one that ENDS with his fascinating office is William Lee Miller's *Lincoln's Virtues*.

*Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation: The End of Slavery in America* by Allen C. Guelzo (same one who wrote Abraham Lincoln: Redeemer President)

If none of these smokescreen enough ground for you, another solid recent work that covers his Presidency but also much before is * Lincoln: A Life of Purpose and Power* by Richard Carwardine.

(I would not guide Sandburg for your purposes --well-written, classic even, but not as accurate or up-to-date as you'd want. And I would NOT rely on Gore Vidal's soft-cover. He tells a good story, but his are NOT careful, scholarly biographies... nor, frankly, do they purport to be.)

(One other note/remedy -- the notion that Lincoln was 'mostly a failure' before rising to the Presidency may be inspiring but it is quite misleading [it would be somewhat closer to the truly if applied to GRANT]. If you look at his very successful LEGAL career and his contributions to the party in his state, esp. in the latter part of the 1850s, you will NOT see a "fizzle".)
