Lincoln's Yarns and Stories - A Complete Collection of the Funny and Witty Anecdotes that made Abraham Lincoln Famous as America's Greatest Story Teller (Paperback)

Lincoln's Yarns and Stories is a Collection of the Funny and Witty Anecdotes that made Abraham Lincoln Famous as America's Greatest Story Teller. It includes Presidential Incidents, Stories Of The War, Lincoln's Letters, and Speeches all chronologically arranged, including a biographical sketch. ABRAHAM LINCOLN, the Great Story Telling President, whose Emancipation Proclamation freed more than four million slaves, was a keen politician, profound statesman, shrewd diplomatist, a thorough judge of men and possessed of an intuitive knowledge of affairs. He was the first Chief Executive to die at the hands of an assassin. Without school education he rose to power by sheer merit and will-power. Born in a Kentucky log cabin in 1809, his surroundings being squalid, his chances for advancement were apparently hopeless. President Lincoln died April 15th, 1865, having been shot by J. Wilkes Booth the night before.
