In the year 1780, Abraham Lincoln, a member of a respectable and well- to-do family in Rockingham County, Virginia, started westward to establish himself in the newly-explored country of Kentucky. He entered several large tracts of fertile land, and returning to Virginia disposed of his property there, and with his wife and five children went back to Kentucky and settled in Jefferson County. Little is known of this pioneer Lincoln or of his father. Most of the records belonging to that branch of the family were destroyed in the civil war. Their early orphanage, the wild and illiterate life they led on the frontier, severed their connection with their kindred in the East. This, often happened; there are hundreds of families in the West bearing historic names and probably descended from well-known houses in the older States or in England, which, by passing through one or two generations of ancestors who could not read or write, have lost their continuity with the past as effectually as if a deluge had intervened between the last century and this. Even the patronymic has been frequently distorted beyond recognition by slovenly pronunciation during the years when letters were a lost art, and by the phonetic spelling of the first boy in the family who learned the use of the pen.

At this time of writing, The Audiobook Abraham Lincoln : A History, Volume I (Illustrated) has garnered 8 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars. Not a bad score at all as if you round it off, it’s actually a perfect TEN already. From the looks of that rating, we can say the Audiobook is Good TO READ!

Hay and Nicolay wrote this series of books after Lincoln died, and much of their source material came from people who knew him and lived the events described. The entire series of books is fascinating reading, and gives one a view of 19th Century life that is in depth and accurate. The descriptions of the Kansas Civil War (which took place before the Lincoln presidency) are fascinating. One other reviewer called this book "boring" - I have NO idea how anyone - ANYONE - could be bored by this. A critical period of our history, one as relevant int he 21st Century as it was at the time, and a time that helps define the ongoing mess we are in now. I haven't yet found Volumes 3-10 on Kindle, but I hope they will soon be available.
