Politician and lawyer, Abraham Lincoln served as the 16th president of the United States until his assassination in 1865. Said to be the greatest president in America’s history, he led the nation through the bloodiest war to bring freedom to slaves. Young Lincoln of New Salem, the culmination of decades of research by author Sam Rawlins, offers readers a fresh perspective of this great statesman’s early life in a powerfully compelling read.
