It is good to know that a young boy from a poor family can apply the principles and ethics he learned at home to become a world renowned hero! Abilene is full of history, but can be proud of the man who served our country as president!

A smaller museum compared to some of the other presidential libraries, but nice, clean and lots of history. Nice grounds, friendly employees and a good way for the whole family to spend the days.

Well presented, thought provoking, poignant. It is worth coming back to see every few years to explore this important historical figure.
