Product Description

If you admire Abraham Lincoln, this guide will take you to the places he lived and worked, laughed and loved, and wept. Follow in Lincoln's footsteps to the log cabin where he was born, to the Indiana frontier where he grew to manhood, to the places where he built his career in law and rose to become sixteenth President of the United States. The book features more than 25 sites, including a fascinating summary of historical events that took place at each site and a detailed description of the site as it is today. This is the ultimate guide for travelers seeking a greater appreciation for the lands of Lincoln.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Read for Everyone, May 9, 2006
By David Schwan (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is simply a marvelous book. I picked up an earlier edition a few years ago and still refer to it quite often for my own research into Lincoln. As Mr. Davenport stated in that edition, the book is a travel guide, not a biography. However, because of the fact that it is so well-researched and full of detail, it could almost pass for a biographical overview, especially of Lincoln's life in Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois, prior to his presidency.

I highly recommend this book for any Lincoln admirer, those who have a mild interest in the subject and especially for those who want to learn more. With Lincoln, there's always more to learn!

4.0 out of 5 stars Sites of moments in Lincoln's life in the Midwest, March 5, 2009
By Jacx (Illinois USA) - See all my reviews
  
This is an excellent book for traveling through Indiana, Kentucky, and Illinois wanting to trace Lincoln's route from birth to his leaving for Washington. Nice facts, addresses, costs of admissions, and some pictures, I do wish they would have been colored, but that does not take away from the coverage. No road maps but highlights showing general area in each state.
