Educating Abe: The "Defective" Education of Abraham Lincoln

By Mary Ann Lee

Abraham Lincoln's desire to learn was sincere. He did not learn for grades or awards and there was no cramming and then forgetting. He didn't attempt to get by without studying or to beat the system. What some presume to be a lack of education was contrasted with his rise to the highest office in the land. To some it is a great mystery, but others understand that this great talker about books-this surprisingly well-read man-was indeed educated in the truest sense of the word.
