This Newbery Honor Book�from a three-time Newbery Honor author�paints an indelible portrait of the prairie president. Clara Ingram Judson presents Lincoln in all his gauntness, gawkiness, and greatness: a backwoods boy who became President and saved the Union. Judson�s careful reading is enlivened by her visits to his home and vivid descriptions of the Lincoln family�s pioneer life. She reveals the unforgettable story from his boyhood and days as a shopkeeper and lawyer, to Lincoln�s first elected offices and his election as president, the Civil War, and assassination.
