The Genesis of Lincoln is a historical book written by James Harrison Cathey and first published in 1899. The book explores the early life and ancestry of Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States. Cathey begins by tracing Lincoln's family roots back to England and then follows his ancestors as they migrated to America and settled in Kentucky. The author also delves into the personal life of Lincoln's parents, Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks, and their struggles to make a living on the frontier. Cathey provides detailed descriptions of the social, economic, and political conditions of the time, as well as the cultural and religious influences that shaped Lincoln's character and worldview. He also examines the impact of slavery on Lincoln's family and the broader society, and how it influenced his political views and actions later in life. The book is written in a scholarly and detailed style, with extensive footnotes and references to primary sources. It offers a unique perspective on Lincoln's early life and the factors that contributed to his rise to the presidency. Overall, The Genesis of Lincoln is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the life and legacy of one of America's most iconic leaders.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
