Description

MY CHILDHOOD'S HOME tells the real story of how a great American hero grew up and became a man. Here is a vivid authentic account of Abraham Lincoln in his formative years, the real story told by those who were there, his friends and family. Here is biography at its purest, all the intimate details told by flesh and blood men and women who say what they saw and heard, just as it happened. Supported by rigorous research, meticulously annotated and featuring the most recent Lincoln scholarship, this historic eyewitness testimony forms a rich vivid narrative unmatched in all Lincoln literature. Here is Lincoln as he was, said law partner Billy Herndon, "just as he lived, breathed, ate and laughed in this world". It is the perfect book for homeschoolers and history buffs.
