About this listen

Abraham Lincoln was one of those rare children was able to hang on to his identity despite unspeakable abuse at the hands of his parents. Today, as a boy, Lincoln would've been considered an abused child. His father, Thomas, whipped him almost every time he spoke, while family members admittedly witnessed young Lincoln being knocked to the ground on multiple occasions.

Most children facing a life of abuse such as Lincoln's become introverted or plagued with interpersonal and relationship problems covering a wide range, yet history records Lincoln as one of America's greatest presidents, able to move masses and rebuild a broken country into a single union.

This program presents the little-known stories of the early years of Abraham Lincoln and examines in-depth the experiences, relationships, and trials faced by a young man that would go on to become the greatest president in American history.
