Abraham Lincoln grew up on the crude, brawling American frontier. He fought, wrestled and swung an ax as well as any man. He went to school less than a year in all his life. Yet, the homely, gawky, unschooled boy of the log cabin grew up to be President of the United States. As President he saved the Union from destruction during the bloody, tragic years of the civil war.
