Abraham Lincoln. A hero must have courage, strength, persistence, selflessness, mercy to victims, mercilessness to enemies, and cleverness and Abraham Lincoln embodied all of these traits.
He forever changed our nation, for the better, by ending slavery,
There is a wealth of information about Abraham Lincoln so you will have no problem getting material for your essay.

A Real American Hero - $3.99 This made-for-TV actioner was designed as the pilot for a series based on the popular Walking Tall films of the 1970s. This time out, a young Brian Dennehy is cast as the stick-wielding, scrupulously honest Tennessee sheriff Buford Pusser (played in the films by Joe Don Baker and Bo Svenson), with Forrest Tucker repeating his role from Walking Tall: The Final Chapter as Pusser's father. After chasing down a speeding car, Pusser is disgusted to find that its teenaged occupants (two of them dead, two blinded for life) are stoned out of their minds on bad bootleg hooch. Bypassing due process and other such legal niceties, Pusser goes on a one-man rampage of destruction in order to square accounts with the evil disco owner-cum-moonshiner responsible for the tragedy. Making things difficult is the fact that one of the villains of the piece is also one of Buford's oldest pals. A Real American Hero made its CBS debut on December 9, 1978. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi |

Cannell-produced superhero parody Greatest American Hero began its two-year network run with this two-hour pilot film on March 18, 1981. William Katt stars as Ralph Hinkley, a mild-mannered schoolteacher who happens to be in the proximity of an alien spaceship landing. Also witnessing the event is G-man Bill Maxwell, played by Robert Culp. The aliens entrust Hinkley with a magic flying suit, instructing him to use this wonderful garment as a means of fighting evil. Alas, Hinkley loses the user's manual for the suit almost immediately, which puts a crimp in Maxwell's plans to thwart an assassination. Connie Sellecca co-stars as Ralph's lady friend Pamela Davidson. Katt, Culp and Selleca were all retained for the Greatest American Hero series proper, though Katt's character name was changed to "Hanley" after John Hinckley's assassination attempt on President Reagan. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi The Greatest American Hero: The Hit Car No synopsis available.

Lafayette: Hero Of The American Revolution $19.79 In this long-overdue history of Marquis Gilbert de Lafayette, acclaimed French author Gonzague Saint Bris recounts Lafayette's invaluable contributions to the American War of Independence and, later, the French Revolution of 1789. The first study of Lafayette to appear in almost ten years, Saint Bris' new volume recounts the young Lafayette's personal friendship with George Washington, who went so far as to refer to Lafayette as his "adopted son," and his pivotal role as Washington's aide-de-camp in helping establish the fledgling American nation. Lafayette's presence at the British surrender at Yorktown is a stark reminder of just how closely our forefather's victory hinged on the help of our French allies, who were roused into action by Lafayette himself. equally absorbing and less well known is Lafayette's idealistic but naive efforts to plant the fruits of the American-style democracy he so admired in the unreceptive soil of his homeland. The rousing story of Lafayette-aide-de-camp and "adopted son" of George Washington-exploring his vital role in the American Revolution. |

Ike: An American Hero $21.59 A big ambitious and enthralling new biography of Dwight D. Eisenhower full of fascinating details and anecdotes which places particular emphasis on his brilliant generalship and leadership in World War Two and provides with the advantage of hindsight a far more acute analysis of his character and personality than any that has previously been available reaching the conclusion that he was perhaps Americas greatest general and one of Americas best presidents a man who won the war and thereafter kept the peace. IKE starts with the story of D-Day the most critical moment in Americas history. It was Hitlers last chance to win the war -- he had the means to destroy the troops on the beaches but he failed to react quickly enough. The one man who would have reacted quickly and decisively had he been on the spot Field Marshal Erwin Rommel was home on leave and didnt arrive back at his headquarters until it was too late. It was Ikes plan Ikes decision Ikes responsibility. He alone among all the Allied generals could win or lose the war in one day and knew it. But of course there is more to this book than military history. It is a full biography of a remarkable man ambitious a late starter a brilliant leader of men and perhaps the only American general who could command such a difficult coalition and win the respect of not only his own soldiers but also those of Great Britain and France and lead them to a triumphant victory. It is also the story of a remarkable family. Ike grew up in Abilene Kansas and the Eisenhowers were Mennonites who like the Amish were deeply committed pacifists so it is ironic that he went to West Point and became a general to his mothers horror. It is as well the portrait of a tumultuous and often difficult marriage for Mamie was every bit as stubborn and forceful as her husband and it was by no means the sunny happy marriage that Republican publicists presented to the public when Ike made his first moves towards the presidency. Indeed behind Ikes big grin and the easy-going affable personality he liked to project was a very different man fiercely ambitious hot-tempered shrewd and tightly wound. He was a perfectionist for whom duty always came first and a man of immense ability. In 1941 he was a soldier who was still an unknown and recently promoted colonel and just two years later he was a four-star general who had commanded the biggest and most successful amphibious operation in history -- TORCH the Anglo-American invasion of North Africa. He commanded respect and was dealt as an equal with such world figures as President Roosevelt Winston Churchill and Charles De Gaulle. |

Ghost Hero $12.99 "Rozan again proves that the private detective novel thrives in the 21st century." -- Oline Cogdill, The Sun-Sentinel on On the Line American-Born Chinese PI Lydia Chin is called in on what appears to be a simple case.  Jeff Dunbar, art world insider, wants her to track down a rumor.  Contemporary Chinese painting is sizzling hot on the art scene and no one is hotter than Chau Chun, known as the Ghost Hero.  A talented and celebrated ink painter, Chau's highly-prized work mixes classical forms and modern political commentary.  The rumor of new paintings by Chau is shaking up the art world.  There’s only one problem – Ghost Hero Chau has been dead for twenty years, killed in the 1989 Tianamen Square uprising. But not only is Ghost Hero Chau long dead, but Lydia’s client isn't who he claims to be either. And she’s not the only PI hired to look for these paintings.  Lydia and her partner, Bill Smith, soon learn that someone else – Jack Lee: PI, art expert, and, like Lydia, American Born Chinese – is also on the case.  What starts as rumors over new paintings by a dead artist quickly becomes something far more desperate – a high-stakes crisis the PI's will find themselves risking everything to resolve. |
