Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States
Born on February 12, 1809, in a log cabin in Kentucky, Abraham Lincoln was the second child of Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks Lincoln. He grew up in poverty, and his formal education was limited to about 18 months of schooling. Despite these humble beginnings, Lincoln's strong desire for knowledge and his natural intelligence enabled him to become a skilled reader and thinker.
Lincoln's early life was marked by hardship and tragedy. In 1818, his mother died, and his father remarried in 1819. Lincoln's stepmother, Sarah Bush Johnston, was a kind and gentle woman who encouraged his love of learning. In 1828, Lincoln moved to New Salem, Illinois, where he worked as a store clerk and began to develop his skills as a lawyer.
In 1832, Lincoln ran for the Illinois state legislature and won. He served in the legislature for several years, during which time he became known for his strong opposition to slavery. In 1846, Lincoln was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, where he served for two terms.
In 1858, Lincoln ran for the U.S. Senate against Stephen Douglas, a prominent Democrat. Although he lost that election, his debates with Douglas helped to establish him as a national figure. In 1860, Lincoln was elected as the 16th President of the United States, with a platform that opposed the expansion of slavery into new territories and states.
As President, Lincoln faced the great challenge of the Civil War, which was fought between the Union (the northern states) and the Confederacy (the southern states) over issues of slavery and states' rights. Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, declaring that all slaves in the Confederate states were free. He also oversaw the passage of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, which abolished slavery throughout the United States.
Lincoln's leadership and vision helped to guide the country through this difficult period, and he remains one of the most revered and admired presidents in American history.
