Lincoln Tells a Joke: How Laughter Saved the President (and the Country)

Poor Abraham Lincoln! His life was hardly fun at all. A country torn in two by war, citizens who didnâ€™t like him as president, a homely appearanceâ€”what could there possibly be to laugh about? And yet he did laugh. Lincoln wasnâ€™t just one of our greatest presidents. He was a comic storyteller and a person who could lighten a grim situation with a clever quip.
Â Â Â Â This unusual biography of Lincoln highlights his life and presidency, focusing on what made his sense of humor so distinctiveâ€”and so necessary to surviving his tough life and times.
