""A Heroine of the Wilderness: The Story of Lincoln's Mother"" is a biographical book written by Hezekiah Butterworth and published in 1906. The book tells the story of Nancy Hanks Lincoln, the mother of the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. The book explores Nancy's life in the wilderness of Kentucky, where she was born and raised, and her journey to adulthood, marriage, and motherhood. The book also delves into the challenges Nancy faced as a single mother after the death of her husband, Thomas Lincoln, and how she provided for her children in the harsh frontier environment. The book is a tribute to Nancy's strength, resilience, and determination in the face of adversity and paints a vivid picture of the early years of the Lincoln family.
