A book with the historical Abraham Lincoln, America's most revered president, was also a father. Here is Lincoln as seen by two of his sons in the years 1859-1864. The sons Willie and Tad follow their dad as he runs for president, life at the White House, barging into cabinet meetings to lift Lincoln’s spirits in the early days of the Civil War, accompanying him to Richmond just after the South's defeat. With the war raging and the Union under siege, Lincoln as a father was always generous, playful and loving to his sons. Shortlisted for this years Children's Books Ireland's Bisto Book of the Year Awards.
