Abe Lincoln Gets His Chance: A Fiction and Literature, History, Post-1930, Young Readers/Childrens Classic By Frances Cavanah! AAA+++

In writing this story of Abraham Lincoln, the author depended primarily on Lincoln's own statements and on the statements of his family and friends who had firsthand knowledge of his everyday life. In instances when dialogue had to be imagined, the conversation might logically have taken place in the light of known circumstances. Such descriptive details as were necessarily added were based on authentic accounts of pioneer times.
