Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Backwoods Boy: Or the Boyhood and Manhood of Abraham Lincoln I venture to say that among our public men there is not one whose life can be studied with more interest and profit by American youth than that of Abraham Lincoln. It is not alone that, born in an humble cabin, he reached the highest position accessible to an American, but especially because in every position which he was called upon to fill, he did his duty as he understood it, and freely sacrificed personal ease and comfort in the service of the humblest. I have prepared the story of Lincoln's boyhood and manhood as a companion volume to the life of Garfield, which I published two years since, under the title.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boyhood of Lincoln A great many years ago a brave man found his way through a gap in the mountains. He stood on the hills and looked over the lovely land of Kentucky. There were deep forests and Open grassy places. Bears and wild turkeys and all kinds of game were in the woods. Great herds of buffalo roamed over the hills. It all looked so peaceful and beautiful that it seemed to be prepared by the hand of God for the use of man. But Indians went on the warpath through those beautiful forests. They lay in wait along the streams with tomahawks ready, for any white men who might come to their favorite hunting ground. The scalps of many brave hunters hung from their belts. One never knew what bush or tree might hide a. Painted savage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from From Pioneer Home to the White House: Life of Abraham Lincoln; Boyhood, Youth, Manhood, Assassination, Death HE author of this volume wrote the first Life of Abraham Lincoln - the pioneer boy, and how HE became president - which, after a very large sale, passed out of print in consequence of the destruction of the plates by fire. A Campaign Life of only thirty-two pages, relating chiefly to his public career, was issued at the West, after his nomination for the Presidency in 1860; but The Pioneer Boy was the first complete biography of the man. Dr. Holland said of it, several years later, in his Life Of Lincoln, A singularly faithful statement of the early experience of Abraham Lincoln. The materials for the Cam paign Life spoken of were furnished by Mr. Lincoln, and he very kindly directed that pamphlet, with a quantity of unused matter, to be passed into our hands, together with the names and addresses of several of his early associates, reared with him in the wilderness, and of intimate friends in later life, from whom the most valuable information, never before given to the public, was received. From these sources of knowledge The Pioneer Boy was prepared. In the preparation of this new, larger and more elab orate Life Of Lincoln, we have had, in addition to the above sources of information, others of even greater value, at least so far as his character and public services relate.

For the third time since moving to Kentucky fourteen years earlier, a frustrated Thomas Lincoln found himself a victim of the state's chaotic land laws; defective titles cost Lincoln land or money in each of the three cases. Thomas Lincoln struggled eighteen miles into the Indiana wilderness and chose a site for his new home. In Indiana, he could purchase land directly from the government; his title to the land would be clear.

Indeed he was, in a way, a born and bred Virginian, for his native state - Kentucky - was owned by Virginia up to within a few years of his birth and the bulk of its population was recruited from the Old Dominion.
