Kenneth J. Winkle's The Young Eagle: The Rise of Abraham Lincoln
represents a pioneering and innovative attempt to place the
pre-presidential Lincoln in the broad social and political context
of his time. On the whole, it is an illuminating, useful
contribution to the field of Lincoln studies for which all students
of the life of the 16th president will be grateful.
*Civil War Book Review*
Rather than providing an homage to the Lincoln legend, Kenneth J.
Winkle has opened a window into the past, offering fresh insights
and new understandings into Lincoln's early life.
