Download or read book Abe written by Richard Slotkin and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2001-03 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning work of historical imagination, Abe immerses the reader in the past Abraham Lincoln kept hidden: the isolating poverty and frontier violence that shaped his character. Marked by the death of his beloved mother and the struggle to keep reading and learning in the face of his father's fierce disapproval, Abe perseveres, growing into the man who changed the course of American history. Abe comes of age in the course of a dramatic flatboat journey down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers to New Orleans. Along the way, Abe and his companions encounter slavery firsthand and experience the violence -- and the pleasures -- of rough river towns, plantations, and the cities of Natchez and New Orleans. Numerous historical figures make appearances alongside the colorful characters of the Mississippi: preachers and vigilantes, planters and thieves, prostitutes and lady reformers. Transformed by what he has seen and done, Abe returns to make his final break with his father and to step out of the wilderness into New Salem -- and history. Richard Slotkin's Abe draws deeply on historical scholarship, but it is not biography. Instead, it is a vivid, persuasive re-creation of the life young Lincoln might have lived, and of the people, scenes, and influences that helped produce the character and conscience of the man often called the greatest of all Americans.

Book Synopsis The Story of Young Abraham Lincoln by : Wyane Whipple
Download or read book The Story of Young Abraham Lincoln written by Wyane Whipple and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From The Story Of Young Abraham Lincoln: To the motherless boy the thought of his blessed mother being buried without any religious service whatever added a keen pang to the bitterness of his lot. Dennis Hanks once told how eagerly Abe learned to write: "Sometimes he would write with a piece of charcoal, or the p'int of a burnt stick, on the fence or floor. We got a little paper at the country town, and I made ink out of blackberry juice, briar root and a little copperas in it. It was black, but the copperas would eat the paper after a while. I made his first pen out of a turkey-buzzard feather. We hadn't no geese them days-to make good pens of goose quills." As soon as he was able Abe Lincoln wrote his first letter. It was addressed to Parson Elkin, the Baptist preacher, who had sometimes stayed over night with the family when they lived in Kentucky, to ask that elder to come and preach a sermon over his mother's grave. It had been a long struggle to learn to write "good enough for a preacher"-especially for a small boy who is asking such a favor of a man as "high and mighty" as a minister of the Gospel seemed to him. It was a heartbroken plea, but the lad did not realize it. It was a short, straightforward note, but the good preacher's eyes filled with tears as he read it.

Book Synopsis Lincoln in Springfield by : Jan Jacobi
Download or read book Lincoln in Springfield written by Jan Jacobi and published by Reedy Press LLC. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Did he strike you as a rising man?” This is the question that surrounds Abraham Lincoln, the freshly minted lawyer eager to take Springfield by storm. But how can he know if he is rising or falling when so much of his character is yet to be determined including who he loves, what sort of politics he wants to engage in, and even what he believes about key issues plaguing the nation? Picking up at the end of his award-winning debut Young Lincoln, Jan Jacobi’s Lincoln in Springfield continues the saga of Abraham Lincoln’s development, as the young man becomes a young professional and politician. No longer does Lincoln grapple with his upbringing and yearn for freedom to forge his own path, now he is firmly on it—albeit on a borrowed horse and with only tenuous ideas about who exactly it is he wants to become. Follow along, from his time as a fledgling lawyer in Springfield to his first term as a Whig Congressman representing Illinois in Washington, D.C. As he argues cases, builds friendships with allies and rivals alike, marries, and begins his political career, the portrait of the presidential Lincoln will begin to emerge, though not without stumbles along the way. Though he still doesn’t quite know the answer, Lincoln in Springfield— Lincoln on his own for the first time—will begin to discern just what kind of person he is destined to be. “In this fascinating second volume, Lincoln in Springfield, Jacobi’s Lincoln matures with the town and the nation, and comes to understand that their challenges are also to be his.” —Robert Bray, author of Reading with Lincoln “Jan Jacobi’s Lincoln in Springfield is a highly readable, worthy sequel to his Young Lincoln.” —Michael Burlingame, author of Abraham Lincoln: A Life
Book Synopsis Honey, the Dog Who Saved Abe Lincoln by : Shari Swanson
Download or read book Honey, the Dog Who Saved Abe Lincoln written by Shari Swanson and published by Katherine Tegen Books. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a little-known tale from Abraham Lincoln's childhood, this charming picture book written by debut author Shari Swanson and illustrated by acclaimed artist Chuck Groenink tells a classic story of a boy, his dog, and a daring rescue. Deeply researched and charmingly told, this is the true story of one extra-special childhood rescue--a dog named Honey. Long before Abraham Lincoln led the nation or signed the Emancipation Proclamation, he was just a barefoot kid running around Knob Creek, Kentucky, setting animals free from traps and snatching frogs out of the jaws of snakes. One day, young Abe found a stray dog with a broken leg and named him Honey. He had no idea that the scruffy pup would find his way into Abe's heart, become his best friend, and--one fateful day--save his life. Whether shared at home or in the classroom, this is a good choice for young readers interested in true stories of U.S. presidents.
