Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of our nation was not only a brilliant lawyer, but was well known for his sharp tongue when he debated Stephen Douglas.

He was spunky, adventurous, and strong willed, but also had another side where he fought numerous battles with depression.

With a Civil War raging on and the country divided because of slavery and the rebel south, Lincoln found himself at a fork in the road having to decide whether to go with the popular opinion of the South or stay true to values of human kind.

Sit back and enjoy the wild adventure as you discover one of our greatest Presidents, Abraham Lincoln.  (Kayla Riley, kmr125@wiu.edu, college student)

SUBJECTS:     Lincoln, Abraham, 1809-1865.
