INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Waldman, Neil

Voyages: Reminiscences of Young Abe Lincoln

(3) 4-6 Using excerpts from political speeches, recorded family reminiscences, and Lincoln's own writing, Waldman successfully gives voice to young Abe's thoughts on slavery and earning an honest living as he travels up and down the Mississippi River on a flatboat. Sepia-tone illustrations and yellowed pages enhance the journal-like presentation of this fictionalized biography. Source notes are included.
