Tying into the official theme for the 2009 Inauguration, “A New Birth of Freedom” from Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, Penguin presents a keepsake edition commemorating the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama with words of the two great thinkers and writers who have helped shape him politically, philosophically, and personally: Abraham Lincoln and Ralph Waldo Emerson.Having Lincoln and Emerson’s most influential, memorable, and eloquent words along with Obama’s much-anticipated historical inaugural address will be a gift of inspiration for every American and a keepsake for generations.
