Seven Steps to Leading a Legendary Life

Beschreibung

"We need Abe Lincoln now more than ever, not just to inspire us, but to teach us how to live. 'How to Be Abe Lincoln' identifies the seven steps that made Lincoln legendary. Filled with useful tips on how to communicate and inspire others, navigate life's obstacles, and do great things, it is a clear, easy-to-use guide to becoming the best version of whatever it is you choose to be. Equal parts history, philosophy, memoir, and how-to, the book is like Lincoln himself, a true original, filled with humor and insight." --
