Within the pages of this book, you will discover Sara A. Craig Newman's invaluable and personal accounts, offering a unique glimpse into her childhood experiences and the realities of life in Kentucky during the dangers of the Civil War in the 1860s. But the primary focus of our narrative will be May 1865. Accompanied by Sara, her father Reverend David, and her young brother Richie, we will embark on a journey down the Ohio River and onward to Springfield, Illinois, retracing Sara's memories of attending Abraham Lincoln's funeral, a pivotal and life-altering event in her life.
