Excerpt from Lincoln's Teacher: A BiographyAS collaborator of a biography of Mentor Graham, Lincoln's teacher, a large unused residue of my material was filed away. Since my part of the research had covered the Ken tucky years, this matter concerned the childhood, early manhood and early teaching of Graham. Now, in View of the current furor over public school education in this country, this material has taken on such significant value as to make its publication if not imperative, at least timely. The Status of Graham as a teacher - as witnessed by his most advanced learner, Lincoln - underwrites the au thority of his recipe for learning and for comprehending what is learned. Teacher and student of today, using this, will prove its effectiveness, the out-oi-school, groping citi zen will discover its power to bring clear understanding of fact, men and events as recorded in the written word, the leader of community or nation will attain surer footing whereon to make his Stand and his decision.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
