Anonymous users2024-02-08Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) Abraham Lincoln was the 16th American** who led the great struggle to save the Union and end slavery. Although he had only a little elementary education on the frontier and had little experience in public office, his keen insight and deep sense of humanitarianism made him one of the greatest in American history. Lincoln was born at dawn on February 12, 1809, in a log cabin 3 miles south of Hall in Harding County, Kentucky.
In his own words, his childhood was "a concise chronicle of poverty." When he was a child, he helped the family carry firewood, carry water, and do farm work. At the age of 9, his mother died, which was a cruel blow to Lincoln.
Fortunately, his stepmother was very good to him, often urging him to read and study, and he had a good relationship with his stepmother. Later, as he grew up, Lincoln began to earn a living independently, working as a farmman, a stonemason, a boatman, etc.

Anonymous users2024-02-07Abraham Lincoln (February 12, 1809 – April 15, 1865) was an American statesman, the 16th (1861-1865) leader of the North during the American Civil War.
Abraham Lincoln was born on February 12, 1809, in Harding County, Kentucky, to a family of lumberjacks. He began his political career in 1834 when he was elected to the Illinois State Assembly.
At that time, slavery was rampant in the United States, and in 1854, southern slave owners actually sent a group of ** people into Kansas to enforce slavery by force, causing the Kansas Civil War. This incident aroused Lincoln's enthusiasm for struggle, and he explicitly declared his political proposition of "fighting for freedom and the abolition of slavery." In 1860 he was elected **.
Southern slave owners were clear about Lincoln's political claims, and they certainly did not want to sit idly by. In 1861, representatives of the seven southern states seceded from the Union, declared independence, formed the "Southern Union", and began to attack the Union forces on April 12, which were repeatedly defeated in the early days of the Civil War. On September 22, 1862, Lincoln announced the draft Emancipation Proclamation (later known as the Emancipation Proclamation), a document of great historical significance, and the situation of the war began to change significantly, and the Northern army quickly moved from defense to offense, and finally won a complete victory in 1865.
By this time, Lincoln's popularity among the American people had grown, and in 1864, Lincoln was re-elected **. Unfortunately, on the evening of April 14, 1865, while attending a play at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D.C., he was suddenly attacked and died the next morning.
Marx, the revolutionary mentor, spoke highly of Lincoln, saying that he was "a man who is not intimidated by difficulties, who is not deceived by success, who is unrelenting in his great aim, and never rashly acts, who moves forward steadily, but never backwards; ......In short, he is a rare figure who has reached great things and still maintained his good qualities".
