Book Description
Excerpt from In the Footsteps of the Lincolns I found it an inspiring thing to trace the roads these seven successive generations of Lincoln pioneers traveled, to look upon the remains of their homes, reconstruct from documents and legends their activities, judge what manner of men and women they were, the place they held among their fellows. In these wanderings the whole history of the United States seemed to unroll before me. In this Lincoln migration we have the family history of millions of our contemporaries. And this story of their vigorous, independent pioneering, their passion for self-help and self-rule, goes far to account for Abraham Lincoln. He was not an accident. These Lin colns were behind him, preparing for the miracle. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Tn the Footsteps of the Lincolns. By IDA. M. TARBELL. A story of the origin and family of Abraham Lincoln. While the problem of pedigree is not so important as Miss Tarbell insists, this book is a useful accompaniment to her great life of the martyred President. Few reflect that Samuel Lincoln, the great-great-great-great-grandfather of Lincoln, was only one of sixty-four ancestors of the same generation whose names are unknown to us, but whose blood he inherited. Our multiple ancestry makes the question of heredity a very confused question. But the book is interesting and valuable.
