Beschreibung

Tells the story of how Abraham Lincoln grew up and became a man, beginning with Lincoln's cousin describing the murder of Abe's grandfather in 1782 by the Wabash Indians in the Kentucky wilderness. It ends as Lincoln turns twenty-five, downcast and debt-ridden after the failure of his first business venture, as he earns his first election victory to take his seat in the Illinois State Legislature. This authentic account of Abraham Lincoln in his formative years is told by those who were there--his friends and family.
