Sixteenth President.

Born: February 12, 1809, in Hodgenville, Hardin County, Kentucky.

Died: April 15, 1865.

Lincoln died the morning after being shot at Ford "s Theater in Washington, D.C. by John Wilkes Booth, an actor.

Married to Mary Todd Lincoln.

Lincoln warned the South in his Inaugural Address: "In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war. The government will not assail you. You have no oath registered in Heaven to destroy the government , while I shall have the most solemn one to preserve, protect and defend it ".

Lincoln thought secession illegal, and was willing to use force to defend Federal law and the Union. When Confederate batteries fired on Fort Sumter and forced its surrender, he called on the states for 75,000 volunteers. Four more slave states joined the Confederacy but four remained within the Union. The Civil War had begun.

The son of a Kentucky frontiersman, Lincoln had to struggle for a living and for learning. Five months before receiving his party "s nomination for President, he sketched his life:

"I was born Feb. 12, 1809, in Hardin County, Kentucky. My parents were both born in Virginia, of undistinguished families - second families, perhaps I should say. My mother, who died in my tenth year, was of a family of the name of Hanks. My father removed from Kentucky to Indiana, in my eighth year. It was a wild region, with many bears and other wild animals still in the woods. There I grew up. Of course when I came of age I did not know much. Still somehow, I could read, write, and cipher. but that was all ".

Lincoln made extraordinary efforts to attain knowledge while working on a farm, splitting rails for fences, and keeping store at New Salem, Illinois. He was a captain in the Black Hawk War, spent eight years in the Illinois legislature, and rode the circuit of courts for many years. His law partner said of him, "His ambition was a little engine that knew no rest".

He married Mary Todd, and they had four boys, only one of whom lived to maturity. In 1858 Lincoln ran against Stephen A. Douglas for Senator. He lost the election, but in debating with Douglas he gained a national reputation that won him the Republican nomination for President in 1860.

As President, he built the Republican Party into a strong national organization. Further, he rallied most of the northern Democrats to the Union cause. On January 1, 1863, he issued the Emancipation Proclamation that declared forever free those slaves within the Confederacy.

Lincoln never let the world forget that the Civil War involved an even larger issue. This he stated most movingly in dedicating the military cemetery at Gettysburg: "that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain - that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom - and that government of the people , by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth ".

Lincoln won re-election in 1864, as Union military triumphs heralded an end to the war. In his planning for peace, the President was flexible and generous, encouraging Southerners to lay down their arms and join speedily in reunion.

The spirit that guided him was clearly that of his Second Inaugural Address, now inscribed on one wall of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC: "With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation "s wounds".

On Good Friday, April 14, 1865, Lincoln was assassinated at Ford "s Theater in Washington by John Wilkes Booth, an actor, who somehow thought he was helping the South. The opposite was the result, for with Lincoln" s death, the possibility of peace with magnanimity died.

Among all presidents in the history of the United States, Abraham Lincoln is probably the one that Americans remember best. He brought honesty and integrity to the White House. Most of all he is remembered or he is associated with the final abolition of slavery. Lincoln became a virtual symbol of the American Dream whereby an ordinary person from humble beginnings could reach the pinnacle of society as president of the country.

Abraham was born on February 12,1809 in Kentucky, and spent the first seven years of his life there. Occasionally he and his sister Sarah attended classes in a log schoolhouse some 3 km from home.

It was difficult time for the family, in which his father Thomas Lincoln tried to make living as a carpenter and farmer. The Lincolns moved from farm to farm around Kentucky until 1816, when the family left to settle in Indiana.

During 14 years the Lincolns lived in Indiana and his childhood in the frontier of Indiana set the course for his character and motivation in life later.

Abraham Lincoln began a long road to become the sixteenth president of the USA, In 1834, he was elected into the House of Representatives and began studying to become a lawyer. For the next few years, he practiced law all across the state. In 1847, he was elected into Congress, but his opinions did not ensure him a long stay there. He was vehemently against slavery. As a result, he was not elected for the second term.

A few years later, slavery became a stronger issue, and more people wanted to abolish it. Lincoln joined Republicans, a new political party that opposed slavery. The Republicans nominated him for the US Senate in 1858. Abraham Lincoln "s oratorical powers brought him to the attention of the nation. In 1860, he was nominated by the Republican Party as its candidate for the Presidency of the United States. Lincoln won by a small margin.

But with his election, the country began the process of dividing. South Carolina had seceded from the Union before he was even inaugurated. Other states followed to form the Confederation. The North and the South were divided, and the Civil War began. The war was not only over the abolition of slavery, but also for the rights of individual states to make their own choices.

Later, Lincoln was elected for the second term of Presidency in 1864. The South surrendered, and the Civil War was ended on April 9, 1865. The difficult period of time began, the time for reconstruction and reconciliation, but Lincoln would not be the person to lead the country through this difficult period.

On April 14, Abraham Lincoln with his wife attended the play in Ford "s Theater in Washington D.C. A few minutes past ten o" clock, an actor stepped into the Presidential box and shot the President. In the following morning Abraham Lincoln died.

Abraham Lincoln - American statesman, 16th President of the United States in 1861-1865, one of the organizers of the Republican Party (1854), which opposed slavery. During the American Civil War of 1861-1865, the Lincoln government carried out a number of democratic reforms, in particular, it passed laws on homesteads, on the abolition of slavery, and ensured the defeat of the southern troops. Born February 12, 1809, near Hodgenville. Died April 15, 1865, in Washington.Choosing a Path Abraham Lincoln was born into a poor farmer's family. Due to frequent moves, he attended school with interruptions, but regularly engaged in self-education, becoming an avid book reader. From an early age, Abraham helped the family with the housework, worked for hire. From 1831 Lincoln settled in New Salem (Illinois), where he worked as a clerk in a store, land surveyor, then joined the militia that opposed the Indians, but did not participate in the battles. In 1833-36 he was a local postmaster, studied law and from 1836 was admitted to legal practice. Formation of Abraham Lincoln as a politician In 1834-42 A. Lincoln was elected four times to the Illinois legislature from the Whig party. In 1837 he moved to the state capital of Springfield. In 1842 he married Mary Todd. In 1847-49 he represented Illinois in the lower house of the US Congress, opposed the war with Mexico and the slave trade. In subsequent years, he practiced law, became one of the leading lawyers in the state, was a consultant for the Illinois Central Railroad. In 1856 Abraham Lincoln joined the newly formed Republican Party. During the elections of 1858, the debate between Lincoln and his rival for a seat in the US Senate, S. A. Douglas, attracted everyone's attention. The victory went to Douglas, but Lincoln's speech "A House Divided", the leitmotif of which was the impossibility of the country's continued existence in a state of "half-slavery and half-freedom", became over time a textbook, and he himself became a figure of a national scale. In the presidential election of 1860, Abraham Lincoln managed to defeat three of his opponents, receiving an overwhelming majority of the electoral college votes. His stay at the White House from March 4, 1861 to April 15, 1865 coincided with the most tragic period in US history - the American Civil War. The slave-owning states responded to the election of Lincoln with secession - secession from the Union and the proclamation in February 1861 of the Confederate States of America. “We are not supposed to be enemies,” Lincoln proclaimed upon inauguration, but the southern armed uprising prompted him to retaliate. A. Lincoln considered slavery an evil, inevitable in the economic conditions that existed in the South of the country. He attributed the issue of slavery to the competence of the states themselves and believed that the government had no constitutional right to intervene in this problem. At the same time, he firmly opposed the spread of slavery to new territories, which undermined the foundations of slavery, because its extensive nature inevitably demanded advancement to the undeveloped lands of the West.An important achievement of the administration of Abraham Lincoln was the adoption in May 1862 of the Homestead Act, which provided for the allotment of 160 acres (64 hectares) of land to every citizen of the country. The law dealt a severe blow to slavery and led to a radical solution to the agrarian problem - the development of agriculture along the farm path.
