ISBN: 978-0-87195-062-8  by Louis A. Warren

While biographical studies of America’s best-known president were numerous by the mid-twentieth century, a curious gap in the literature existed in regard to documentation and interpretation of the formative years that Lincoln spent in Indiana. As one reviewer noted, “Indiana was the state he passed through on his way from Kentucky to Illinois and immortality.” Warren’s Lincoln’s Youth addresses the years in Indiana from 1816-1830.
