http://showcase.netins.net/web/creative/lincoln/speeches/lyceum.htm

This website is a primary source because of the fact that he wrote the speech himself. It talks about friendship and religion. This will really help my project because I can put some quotes in there.

http://www.ipl.org/div/potus/alincoln.html

This website gave me so much information that it is remarkable. There is everything you need to know about him. It talks about from when he was born until the day he died. It is incredible.




Thesis Statement -

Abraham Lincoln is the most influential person in American history because he was the sixteenth president of the United States and wanted to abolish slavery and another reason why I believe he is so influential is because he died for what he believed in.

From this website I got a whole bunch of information of Abraham Lincoln. The website told me basically everything that you need to know about Abrahams life. It told me where he is from, his family, and his birthplace. It also talks about his path to the white house.

This website also is very informative about his role in the civil war. This is a secondarey source because it is a website about Abraham Lincoln but the author wasn't there.
