Hardcover. Unpaginated (80 p). Illustrations. Chronology. Introduction by Gabor Boritt. Originally published in a black-and-white edition in 1994, "The Gettysburg Address" is now available in a full-color edition, complete with Finks original illustrations and hand-lettering. Includes quotes by Carl Sandberg, Benjamin Harrison,…Elihu Washburne, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Walt Whitman (among others). Sam Fink (May 27, 1916 November 1, 2011) was an American calligrapher. He created illustrated and inscribed editions of various historically significant American documents. His book, The Constitution of the United States of America, was well received. The art from the book was displayed at a courthouse in Pennsylvania. The opening of this showing at the courthouse was broadcast on the international news channel CNN. Fink released an illustrated version of the Book of Exodus (hand lettered in English and Hebrew) in September 2007 published by Welcome Books. Fink was an artist of inimitable range who first learned to hand-letter from his father. After marrying his wife Adele, they raised two sons while he studied at the National Academy and the Art Students' League. For two decades, Fink worked as an art director at Young & Rubicam. Later, he taught at Pratt Institute and made professional contributions to the Lands End catalog. For more than 20 years, Fink educated and entertained adults and children with his illustrated texts of American history. He celebrated his 90th birthday in 2006 with the release of The Constitution of the United States of America (Welcome Books) which had won a Gold IPPY. He also published The Declaration of Independence: The Words that Made America (Scholastic), and Welcome Books published Fink s full-color edition of The Gettysburg Address in 2007." Also from WIkipedia: "Gabor S. Boritt (born 1940) was the Robert Fluhrer Professor of Civil War Studies and Director of the Civil War Institute at Gettysburg College. Born and raised in Hungary, he participated as a teenager in the 1956 revolution against the Soviet Union. He escaped to America, where he received his higher education and became a scholar of Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War. He is the author, co-author, or editor of sixteen books about Lincoln or the War. Boritt received the National Humanities Medal in 2008 from President George W. Bush. At a November 17, 2008, White House ceremony, Boritt was honored "for a distinguished career of scholarship on Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War era. His life's work and his life's story stand as testaments to our Nation's precious legacy of liberty." His life story is the subject of a feature-length documentary film titled Budapest to Gettysburg. Boritt and his wife live on a farm near the Gettysburg Battlefield, where they have raised their three sons. He retired from both positions in 2009.After teaching at the University of Michigan, in 1981, Boritt came to Gettysburg College. He founded the Civil War Institute and the school created for him the nation s first fully funded chair for the study of the Civil War. He helped create the $50, 000 Lincoln Prize, widely considered the most coveted award for the study of American history. He also helped create the Gilder Lehrman Institute, which is focused on improving the teaching of history in schools. Today, Gabor Boritt serves on the boards of the Gettysburg National Battlefield Museum Foundation and the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission, appointed by Congress. His latest book The Gettysburg Gospel: The Lincoln Speech Nobody Knows was featured on the cover of U.S. News and World Report and called "fascinating" by the New York Times[1]. [citation needed] In September 2008 Gabor Boritt gave a tour of the Gettysburg battlefield to President George W. Bush, Laura Bush and a group including White House Advisor Karl Rove, Former Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez, and Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings.
