He became a lawyer through self-disciplined study\, won the White House through the concurrent rise of American popular publishing\, and remains one of the most written about figures over the 160 years since his death. Abraham Lincoln: His Life in Print uses original printings of books and ephemera to create a sweeping\, conceptual portrait of the man. The exhibition features important editions of Lincoln’s greatest accomplishments\, including the Emancipation Proclamation\, the Gettysburg Address\, the Cooper Union Speech\, his debates with Stephen A. Douglass\, and many others. More than 150 objects describe the life of Lincoln as he was born in the American West\, captivated by literature\, shaped by the portentous 1850s\, tested by the American Civil War\, responsible for the end of slavery\, and murdered and mourned at the age of 56. Featuring materials from the David M. Rubenstein Americana Collection\, the exhibition is curated by Mazy Boroujerdi\, special advisor to the collection\, and will be accompanied by a catalogue published by the Grolier Club. \nDavid M. Rubenstein is co-founder and co-chairman of the private equity firm The Carlyle Group and is the principal owner of the Baltimore Orioles baseball team. His published books include The Highest Calling: Conversations on the American Presidency (2024) and The American Story: Conversations with Master Historians (2019). His philanthropic activities have assisted the Lincoln Memorial\, the Washington Monument\, Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello\, Arlington House\, and the U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial (Iwo Jima). His collection has included the Bay Psalm Book (1640\, the first book printed in America) and the Magna Carta (1297\, one of the most important legal documents in the history of democracy). \nVisit the exhibition online and view case images on Flickr.\nPhoto Credit: Cover of Abraham Lincoln: His Life in Print (Grolier Club\, from Marquand Books).
