![]() About the Book Abraham Lincoln was born on February 12th 1809 in Hodgenville, Kentucky in a single-roomed log cabin. He is now ranked as one of the greatest presidents in the history of the United States of America and had many great achievements. One of which, the abolition of slavery, he was unable to see due to his assassination in 1865. This is the story of how Lincoln went from working on a farm in Spencer County, to the President of the United States of America, to a leader of the American Civil War and finally to his immortalisation on Mount Rushmore, the Lincoln Memorial and on millions of coins and $5 bills.

From the Alpha Phi Omega fraternity to the White House, William Jefferson Clinton’s journey has not been without scandal. However his long and successful presence in international politics highlights his continued relevance and diplomatic skills. Now sixty-six years old, the man they call ‘Slick Willy’ is still a committed democrat, and a powerful ally of incumbent President Barack Obama. Despite his humble beginnings, his rise to becoming the most powerful man in the world makes Bill Clinton’s life an example of hard-work, dedication and natural ability and charm, and how when this is combined, the greatest heights are always achievable.

Bush followed in his father’s footsteps and became the 43rd President of the United States of America at the turn of the millennium, overseeing two difficult terms for the nation. Before leaving office in 2009, where he was replaced by current president Barack Obama, Bush suffered some of the lowest public opinion ratings of recent history, not just in America, but also internationally. Perhaps unfairly remembered for his cowboy-like accent and mannerisms, as well as a collection of famous quotes (often not for the right reasons), Bush was at points of his presidency one of the most popular and one of the least popular presidents. Despite this, he is perhaps Texas’ most famous adopted son, and George’s life has seen him progress from Yale graduate to the oval office, whilst becoming a successful businessman, a pilot and governor of his home state along the way.
