Abraham Lincoln's agricultural legacy

A man of the soil, Abraham Lincoln cleared many paths throughout his lifetime, determined to make life easier for others. As a boy, Abraham Lincoln helped his family break through the wilderness and struggle on their frontier farm. As a young man, Abraham Lincoln entered politics on the American prairie and campaigned for better schools and better roads. As president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln cleared paths for better farming, transportation, and education. And, during the darkest days of the Civil War, when everyone needed hope, President Lincoln cleared a path so that all Americans could have a better future. - inside front cover
