Summary "Abraham Lincoln, Volume I" by John T. Morse Jr. is a historical account crafted in the late 19th century, specifically in the 1890s. This work serves as the first volume in a series that chronicles the life and contributions of President Abraham Lincoln, aiming to offer insights into his character, upbringing, and the influential events surrounding the Civil War. The narrative focuses on Lincoln's early years and the formative experiences that shaped his values and ambitions as a leader. The opening of the book offers a deep and detailed exploration of Lincoln's ancestry and early life, capturing the challenges he faced growing up in a poverty-stricken household with a migratory father and a mother of very modest origins. It paints a vivid picture of the rough, untamed environment of early 19th-century America, rife with hardship and limited educational opportunities. Notably, Lincoln's early education consisted of only brief stints with various teachers, yet he developed a voracious appetite for reading, lingering on classic texts that fueled his intellectual growth. The text foreshadows the qualities of resilience and determination that will characterize his future endeavors, while also setting the stage for his eventual rise into political prominence—all amidst a backdrop of social strife and the encroaching civil conflict that would define his presidency.
