Free (Kindle/iTunes) Every-day Life of Abraham Lincoln [Vintage Political Biography]

The Every-day Life of Abraham Lincoln by the late Francis F. Browne (Wikipedia) is a vintage public domain biography originally out in 1886 and revised in 1913, free courtesy of publisher Diversion Books, as part of their Civil War Classics reprint series.

This is a fairly lengthy 491-page work which they seem to have formatted decently (although it doesn't look like they've put in 2-way linkage for the handful of footnotes, sigh), and they've put in a mini-biographical write-up of Browne (with a photograph), so it's nice of them to give this one away free for a limited time so that you can evaluate whether or not it's worth it to pay for the presumed similar value-add for the other reprints in their series, if you're interested.

Currently free @ Amazon (available to Canadians and in the UK) & iTunes (available to Canadians).

Description
To commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the end of the Civil War, Diversion Books is publishing seminal works of the era: stories told by the men and women who led, who fought, and who lived in an America that had come apart at the seams.

A time and place as complex as Civil War America needed a leader as complex as Abraham Lincoln. These stories reveal new depths of our 16th President as a family man, a statesman, and a leader.
