  1. In Indiana, 1818, nine-year-old Abraham Lincoln kneels by his mother’s bedside as she succumbs to "Milk Sickness." Unbeknownst to him, her death is caused by a vampire. Grieving, Abe vows in his journal to dedicate his life to mastering mind and body for a singular purpose: vengeance. Equipped with his notable height, strength, and ax skills, he embarks on a quest that ultimately leads him to the White House. While Lincoln is celebrated for preserving the Union and emancipating millions, his battle against the undead has remained obscured for centuries. This changed when Seth Grahame-Smith discovered The Secret Journal of Abraham Lincoln, the first person to see it in over 140 years. Using this journal as a foundation, Seth reconstructs Lincoln's true story, blending historical narrative with the hidden influence of vampires on the Civil War and the nation’s development. Through this lens, the book reveals a captivating and alternate perspective on the life of one of America’s greatest presidents, intertwining his legendary achievements with a secret history of supernatural conflict.
