520 _a"Abraham Lincoln and the Abolition of Slavery in the United States" by Charles Godfrey Leland is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This biography delves into the life and political career of Abraham Lincoln, particularly focusing on his role in the abolition of slavery during a tumultuous period in American history. The book paints a picture of Lincoln's perseverance and moral integrity, which ultimately led to significant changes in the nation. The opening of the biography introduces Abraham Lincoln, detailing his early life from his birth in Kentucky to his family's challenges and hardships. It describes his formative years of self-education, his relationships with family members, particularly his mother, and the influences that shaped his character. Leland emphasizes Lincoln's physical strength, intellectual curiosity, and empathetic nature, setting the stage for the defining moments of his later career. The narrative highlights not only the socio-economic conditions of Lincoln's upbringing but also the foundational experiences that would later inform his views on equality and civil rights, particularly as they relate to the abolition of slavery.
