A Tall, Thin Tale (Introducing His Forgotten Frontier Friend) From the back cover: "Now I'm sure you know lots about Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president of the United States. But what you might not know is that Abe would never have become president if it hadn't been for Austin Gollaher. You see, he was Abe's childhood friend, and when Abe went tumbling into the raging waters of Knob Creek one fateful day ... well, luckily Austin was there." Paperback. Like new condition.
