Abe Lincoln spoke many memorable adages. As the sixteenth president, he
needed great wisdom to guide the country through the Civil War, preserve
the Union, and end slavery. This nontraditional tribute to the president
who brought the homespun demeanor and humor of his humble beginnings to
the White House uses the alphabet to organize a wealth of information
about his life and accomplishments. Filled with Lincoln's often humorous
proverbs and witty cartoons by John O'Brien, this colorful book takes a
thought-provoking look at Old Abe.
