Lincoln and the Sleeping Sentinel: The True Story is a non-fiction book written by L. E. Chittenden. The book tells the true story of a young Union soldier who was found asleep at his post during the Civil War and was sentenced to be executed. However, President Abraham Lincoln intervened and pardoned the soldier, citing his exhaustion and dedication to duty. The book explores the events leading up to the soldier's arrest, the trial, and Lincoln's decision to pardon him. It also delves into the broader themes of duty, loyalty, and compassion during wartime. The book is a fascinating account of a little-known episode in American history and sheds light on Lincoln's character as a leader and a humanitarian.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
