TY - BOOK AB - President Abraham Lincoln grew up in a one-room log cabin. President John F. Kennedy was raised in the lap of luxury. One was a Republican and one a Democrat. They lived and served a hundred years apart. Yet they had a number of things in common. Some were coincidental: having seven letters in their last names. Some were monumental: Lincoln's support for the abolitionist movement and Kennedy's support for the civil rights movement. They both lost a son while in office. And, of course, both were assassinated. AU - Barretta, Gene, CN - E457.2 CN - E457.2 ID - 1372958 KW - Presidents KW - Presidents N2 - President Abraham Lincoln grew up in a one-room log cabin.
