"Highly Recommended" Civil War News, August, 2014 "Novel approach... A pleasant reading experience." "True to history, creative use of known facts (to)create a historical prism to see Abe Lincoln..." On September 8, 1865, two people met who knew Lincoln better than anyone. Lincoln's longtime friend and law partner, William H. Herndon, interviewed 'Old Mrs. Lincoln' in preparation for a biography of the martyred President. She tells Herndon the famed Life of Lincoln not as facts, but as ten stories. Herndon's notes, as well as other firsthand accounts, provided an abundance of material to create an accessible, often authentic narrative with a bent for the grit of frontier life. The setting is two rocking chairs in front of a well fed fire in Mrs. Lincoln's prairie cabin home. The build up to The Civil War is woven into the aged woman's recollections. Also within the context of the story, it is my honor to pay tribute to the strength of people who cannot move a muscle. From a bed of leaves to The White House, she fostered a metamorphosis. You are invited to pull up a rocking chair next to Abraham Lincoln's Stepmother and enjoy her company for an afternoon.
