Customer Reviews

Well researched gem of a book detailing a little known slice of Lincoln's life

Very interesting and quick read (91 pages) of Lincoln's connection to farmland he owned in Illinois. Contains well researched details of the history of the land going back to when it was purchased from the US government. Lots of great photos, including the original deed Abe wrote when he purchased the land from his father. There's also mention of a very cool way to own a small piece of that farm, and to help charity by doing so.
