Description

Born to a family of farmers, Lincoln stood out from an early age – literally! (He was six feet four inches tall.) As the sixteenth President of the United States, he led the nation during the Civil War and played a crucial role in ending slavery. However, Lincoln’s life took a tragic turn when he was shot one night at Ford’s Theater – the first President to be assassinated.
