      Abraham Lincoln was a 

prominent, historically-significant 

man in our country's history. The 

son of a Kentucky frontiersman, 

Lincoln had to struggle 

throughout his early life. He was 

self-educated. He worked hard to 

become a country lawyer. 

     Lincoln started his national 

career as a Captain in the 

Army. He also spent eight 

years in the Illinois Legislature 

and one term in the House of 

Representatives.  

       In Lincoln's personal life, 

he married Mary Todd. They 

had four boys, but only one 

lived to maturity. 

     Lincoln ran for President as 

a Republican, and he became 

the 16th President of the 

United States. Soon after this 

election, the Civil War started.
