Don’t believe everything you read on the internet.” - Abraham Lincoln Hmm. Okay. Starting here, you can believe it. Follow in the footsteps of Abraham Lincoln as you explore the area surrounding his home of seventeen years in Springfield, Illinois. Abraham Lincoln believed in the ideal that everyone in America should have the opportunity to improve their economic and social condition. Lincoln’s life was the embodiment of that idea. We know him as the sixteenth president but he was also a spouse, parent, and neighbor who experienced the same hopes, dreams, and challenges of life that are still experienced by many people today.
