Summary "The Lincoln Country in Pictures" by Carl and Rosalie Frazier is a historical photographic account written in the early 1960s. This book presents a unique depiction of the environments and locations significant to Abraham Lincoln’s early life and formative years. It combines photographs with narratives to evoke the spirit of the frontier towns and landscapes that shaped Lincoln's character and ambitions. The book immerses readers in the world that young Abraham Lincoln inhabited, showcasing over 100 photographs that illustrate key sites in Kentucky, Indiana, and Illinois. The Fraziers highlight Lincoln's rise from humble beginnings, capturing places such as his birthplace in Kentucky and New Salem, where he worked as a clerk and began his political career. Through the lens of simple descriptions and evocative imagery, the authors explore how Lincoln's experiences among ordinary people informed his understanding of governance and humanity. This pictorial journey effectively bridges the historical past with Lincoln's enduring legacy, allowing readers to appreciate the world in which he grew and the lessons he learned along the way.
