&ldquo;An intimate character portrait and fascinating inquiry into the basis of Lincoln&rsquo;s energetic, curious mind . . . We see in Lincoln&rsquo;s fragments a poised and resolute intellectual. We also see a vulnerable individual humbled by the precariousness of the nation and of its vast, uncertain future. . . . As Mr. White shows so persuasively, Lincoln&rsquo;s quiet, personal moments laid the foundation for his enduring public legacy.&rdquo;&mdash;The Wall Street Journal&ldquo;These selected personal notes form chapters that describe Lincoln&rsquo;s life in private moments. As a whole, they create&#160;a unique, intimate, highly readable, and personable biography&#160;of Abraham Lincoln.&rdquo;&mdash;New York Journal of Books&ldquo;In this elegant and illuminating book, the great biographer Ronald C. White takes us on a fascinating tour inside the mind&mdash;and the heart&mdash;of Abraham Lincoln.&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. An important and timeless work.&rdquo;&mdash;Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize&ndash;winning author of His Truth Is Marching On&ldquo;This engaging volume captures the private thoughts of a man who often still feels like an enigma more than a century and a half after his death. Through insightful analysis, Ronald C. White enables us to better understand Lincoln and to better comprehend how the political and cultural landscape nurtured his thinking. Lincoln in Private is essential reading for both scholars and general audiences alike.&rdquo;&mdash;Edna Greene Medford, author of Lincoln and Emancipation&#160;&ldquo;Out of long-forgotten memoranda, Ronald C. White has managed to construct a major Lincoln study that truly illuminates the life and philosophy of our greatest president. This is an exceptional feat of research, reconstruction, and reanalysis. It deserves a place on every bookshelf alongside Lincoln&rsquo;s collected works and, of course, White&rsquo;s own books.&rdquo;&mdash;Harold Holzer, author of Lincoln and the Power of the Press and winner of the Lincoln Prize&#160;&ldquo;Abraham Lincoln rendered the nation&rsquo;s enduring tensions and purposes in unforgettable prose. Yet Lincoln did some of his best writing in small fragments, personal notes, and memos that illuminate his thinking anew. By assembling and expertly explicating these gems, Ronald C. White has made a singular and valuable contribution to the literature on our greatest president.&rdquo;&mdash;Sean Wilentz, author of The Rise of American Democracy&#160;&ldquo;Abraham Lincoln&rsquo;s habit of jotting ideas and reflections on scraps of paper and placing them in a desk drawer to be drawn upon later for speeches, letters, and official documents has enabled Ronald C. White to offer important new insights into Lincoln&rsquo;s thought processes in this fascinating book.&rdquo;&mdash;James M. McPherson, Pulitzer Prize&ndash;winning author of Battle Cry for Freedom and Tried By War: Abraham Lincoln as Commander in Chief

Dear Coach

Praise for the Field Notes series&#10;&#8220;A clear-eyed assessment of the links between property, policing, and the subjugation of Black people ... Walcott&#8217;s analysis of the ways in which white supremacy is baked into the legal systems of Canada and the U.S. is stimulating. Progressives will embrace this well-conceived call for change.&#8221;&#8212;Publishers Weekly&#10;&#8220;Running a brief but far-reaching and punchy 96 pages, On Property has an absolute certainty of purpose: calling for the abolition of private property ownership ... [If] statements such as &#8216;the problem of property is resolved through its removal&#8217; or calls to &#8216;abolish everything&#8217; can make some people quake, when Walcott&#8217;s pamphlet argues for the human ability to reconsider and rebuild societal structures, the stances come across as sensible and, better yet, doable.&#8221;&#8212;Toronto Star&#10;&#34;Rinaldo Walcott locates his contribution to the Field Notes series on current issues, On Property, in the present political moment, while using historical references and events to argue for the abolition of police and property ... Walcott concludes his case by asking for a new ethics of care and economy that does not keep feeding into the incarceration system, a system rigged to continue Black suffering ... It is a question we must ask ourselves after reflecting on the ways in which we, too, are complicit.&#34;&#8212;Quill & Quire&#10;&#34;Kingwell offers a slender, thoughtful, sometimes meandering disquisition on risk that &#8220;is inflected (or infected) by the virus, but not precisely about the virus&#8212;except as it grants new urgency to old questions of risk and politics. A host of cultural allusions&#8212;from Shakespeare to the Simpsons, Isaiah Berlin to Irving Berlin, Voltaire, Pascal, and Derrida&#8212;along with salient academic studies inspire Kingwell to examine the many contradictory ways that humans handle risk ... An entertaining gloss on an enduring conundrum.&#34;&#8212;Kirkus Reviews&#10;&#8220;Urgent, far-reaching and with a profound generosity of care, the wisdom in On Property is absolute. We cannot afford to ignore or defer its teachings. Now is the time for us-collectively-to take up the challenge in this undeniable gift of a book.&#8221;&#8212;Canisia Lubrin, author of The Dyzgraphxst and Voodoo Hypothesis
