Born in February 1809, Abraham Lincoln grew up in a one-room loofa cabin on the Sinking Spring Farm in Hardin County, Kentucky. After his father lost his fortune in court cases involving faulty property titles, Lincoln and his family moved to Spencer County, Indiana. After his mother passed away from milk sickness in 1818, Lincoln worked long hours to support his family through chopping wood and building rail fences. This volume outlines these troubles and Lincoln's informal education in which he was mostly self-educated through avidly reading books of all kind.
