Tarbell is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work presents a detailed exploration of Abraham Lincoln's ancestry, upbringing, and early experiences that shaped him into the man who would become the sixteenth President of the United States. The book delves into Lincoln’s lineage, providing insights into the lives and characteristics of his ancestors, particularly focusing on his father, Thomas Lincoln, and the family’s pioneering struggles. The opening of the book lays the groundwork for understanding Lincoln's heritage, beginning with his family's arrival in America from England in the 17th century. It narrates the lineage's journey through various states and highlights significant figures, such as his grandfather, who faced the harsh realities of frontier life. The narrative introduces Thomas Lincoln's efforts to provide for his family amidst challenging conditions, setting the stage for the future president's formative years in a log cabin in Kentucky and later in Indiana. This introduction paints a portrait of a young boy deeply influenced by his environment and lineage, framing his character, development, and the initial steps toward his remarkable future.
