FOREWORD
Only a list of names and epithets of Abraham Lincoln from
the cradle to the grave and eighty-five years after—some used
countless times, some a few times, and a fair number just once
as far as I have seen in going over several hundred thousand
books, broadsides, pieces of sheet music, pamphlets, news-
papers, manuscripts, cards, micro-films, etc. Only one user of
a name or one source is given. Four years' work on a bibli-
ography of the songs on Lincoln and one of poems connected
with Lincoln has aroused the question, "To what limits do you
go?" and this list gives a sort of an answer. The librarians
who have assisted, checked lists or supplied data on rare items,
the thousands of books analyzed, bibliographical sources, etc.,
will appear in my main works.
As Lincoln now leads in the nineteenth century, the number
of expressions of exaltation and condemnation applied to him
seem to proclaim him the first human of the Christian era, and
an extended study could be done on his names, but this ele-
mentary list may be an aid to Lincoln scholars and collectors,
and to politicians, cross-word puzzle devotees, and quiz fans.
