Summary

"Lincoln, the American" by Frank O. Lowden is a speech honoring Abraham Lincoln, given in 1919 by the former Governor of Illinois. It looks at Lincoln's strong moral compass and how his beliefs are still important today. Lowden points out that Lincoln saw politics as more than just laws, but as questions of right and wrong. He connects Lincoln's ideas to the value of freedom and equal chances for everyone. The speech argues Lincoln's ideas don't just matter to America, but offer guidance to the world, especially after the recent war.
