Now with an updated 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
politician. Cheryl Harness gives readers a moving account of Lincoln's
rise and the tensions that dragged the nation into conflict; brilliantly
detailed maps and battle scenes deepen our understanding of the Civil
War; and the book's richly imagined illustrations recreate the life of
the man who will always be regarded as one of our greatest presidents.
