Who is Abraham Lincoln?

Abraham Lincoln, byname Honest Abe, the Rail-Splitter, or the Great Emancipator,
(born February 12, 1809, near Hodgenville,
Kentucky, U.S.—died April 15, 1865, Washington, D.C.), 16th president of the United
States (1861–65),
who preserved the Union during the American Civil War and brought about the
emancipation of enslaved people in the United States.
Among American heroes, Lincoln continues to have a unique appeal for his fellow
countrymen and also for people of other lands.
This charm derives from his remarkable life story—the rise from humble origins, the
dramatic death—and from his distinctively human and humane personality as well as
from his historical role as savior of the Union and emancipator of enslaved people.
His relevance endures and grows especially because of his eloquence as a
spokesman for democracy.
In his view, the Union was worth saving not only for its own sake but because it
embodied an ideal, the ideal of self-government.
In recent years, the political side to Lincoln’s character, and his racial views in
particular, have come under close scrutiny, as scholars continue to find him a rich
subject for research.
The Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., was dedicated to him on May 30, 1922.
