First edition of Abraham Lincoln Comes Home by author Robert Burleigh and artist Wendell Minor. A farm boy and his father travel to town to be among the millions of Americans who paid their respects to the fallen President as his funeral train made the thirteen-day journey to Springfield.
Written by Robert Burleigh. Illustrated by Wendell Minor. 2008, stated first edition, first printing. Henry Holt and Company.
In the dawn hours, Luke and his father hitch the horse and buggy for the ride from their farm to Harden's Mill to pay their respects to President Abraham Lincoln as his funeral train passes through town on its journey from Washington, D.C. through the heartland to his final rest in Springfield, IL.
The beautifully illustrated story is followed by a one-page Afterword that gives a brief history of Lincoln's assasination and the thirteen-day train journey to Illinois and additional facts about the funeral train.
Robert Burleigh has written over 40 children's books, including biographies of Amelia Earhart and Babe Ruth, histories of flight and space travel, and stories about big events and interesting people.
