Description
Now with an up to date paperback cover, Abe Lincoln Goes to Washington paints a vivid picture of the Springfield, IL years, when Abe met and married a pretty Kentucky woman, and made his name as a lawyer and flesh presser. Cheryl Harness gives readers a moving account of Lincoln’s upward push and the tensions that dragged the nation into conflict; brilliantly detailed maps and battle scenes deepen our working out of the Civil War; and the book’s richly imagined illustrations recreate the life of the person who will at all times be thought to be one among our best presidents.
