Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln and New Constitutional Governments: Containing Chapter on Washington and Lincoln, Showing What They Accomplished in Forming and Perpetuating Constitutional Government on a Republican Basis
This book is a continuation of my former book, Abraham Lincoln and Constitutional Government, a volume of four hundred pages published in 1916, during the World War, though commenced prior to 1914. The last nation that had adopted a republican form of government was Portugal, and I had its constitution translated and used with other modern constitutions. Now there have been formed a number of other constitutions which have been collected and included in this third part. As others are obtainable they will be sent if desired to the purchasers of this book at a slight additional cost to cover their publication.
