This exhaustive biography includes the locations in the life of Abraham Lincoln: Indiana, Illinois, Washington. It also tracks his varied tasks as a salesperson, serviceman, state legislator, barrister, statesman, Republican Party leader, and most especially President. We explore most of his times of difficulty as a starting attorney, his beloved Anne Rutledge, allegories such as "Honest Abe," and his unfathomable trepidations on the problems of servitude. The writer uses the President's letters to all to demonstrate his qualities and commentaries about his life. Francis Fisher Browne was an editor, poet, and critic. He came from South Halifax, Vermont. After finishing high school, he joined the Forty-sixth Massachusetts Volunteers from 1862 to 1863. He got married to Susan Seaman Brooks in 1867. He studied law in Rochester and Ann Arbor; edited the Lakeside Monthly in Chicago from 1869 to 1874, The Alliance from 1878 to 1879, and The Dial from 1880 to 1913, a semimonthly literary journal. Francis led the 20th century scholarly and literary setting in Chicago, Illinois. A relocate from New England, Francis lived in Chicago in 1867 and created the literary review, The Dial, which was a resumption of Margaret Fuller's mystical magazine and used as a site for modernist fiction. He sought Chicago to be rather hostile to important academic activities, and forwent most of his own fortune in the interest of The Dial's triumph. The journal was eventually inaugurated, after Francis had exerted efforts in magazines from the Western Monthly, Lakeside Monthly and the Chicago Alliance. Counter to the prime embodiments of The Dial, his ambition was disapproved for its nonpolitical and traditional subject matter. He also tried to build a classy book shop, Browne's Bookstore, in the Fine Arts Building. The shop was styled by Frank Lloyd Wright. Although, he was unsuccessful to draw steady benefaction, he shut the shop after a span of five years.
