林肯传(大师经典文库)(英文版)

看了几个中文版本，都有很多问题，要么平铺直叙，要么词藻过于华丽，脱离原文。只能啃英文原版。多亏了那些翻译不好的中文版，我才有机会读完英文版《林肯传》。在这本书中，林肯的慈悲，智慧和幽默无处不在，有时会让我感动落泪，有时笑得前仰后合。林肯就是跟你我一样的普通人，但是他的心胸、格局、信念与坚韧的性格却是非常人所能具备的。安息吧，林肯总统，愿世界和平，不再有任何战争……

how determined a man can be,how selfless a man can be,and how tolerant a man can be!he is merely an ordinary guy,meanwhile,he's such unique,as old saying goes,every great person has definitely gone through unbelievably tough life,from the life living in bush with penniless to the life stepping into white house with an extremely disturbing wife,few people can penetrate to see this man's heart where he concealed so many ineffable struggles,sometimes i imagine what he was thinking when he raised his feet onto the bottom of the window of his unkempt and smelly lawyer office in Sprinfeld,was he thinking about his future lawyer career?or what could he do to relieve the pain of black people?or simply thinking about his quite miserable marriage,despite other merits he possessed,as a man to liberate slaves from his land,he is a great man,doubtless

字数虽然不算特别多，但我还是读了两个多月，阅读的过程是痛苦的，但真正全文读下来后的成就感是空前的，真正去尝试了解林肯后，发现他虽然头顶多项光环，但他的个人生活无疑是痛苦的，自己心爱的人患病去世，和自己不爱的人组成家庭，文中描述的家庭生活更像是一个地狱，在这种环境下我可能1个月就疯了，他还能默默忍受过来，林肯身上更多展现的是坚忍的气质，一个正直的，无权无势，默默忍受生活的人，竟然一路干到了美国总统，虽然这个总统更像是他捡来的，不得不说有时候机缘巧合也很重要。

2018.4.3-2022.4.18 时间确凿无误，一本看了四年的书。词句不细究，凭连续的记忆和印象，串成一个故事，出现一个伟大的人的形象。对个人而言是悲剧，然而是胜利的悲剧，是战胜的人生。

卡耐基的文笔是真的好，特别擅长叙事和细节刻画。把林肯的人生佚事和美国历史结合的很好，可读性强。这个暑假已推荐给国际学校的学生阅读。

Lincoln was destined to become a great president due to his tenacity and courage.

一本非常经典的林肯传记，原汁原味，美国成功学大师戴尔·卡耐基执笔，值得阅读、回味[呲牙]
