Good news and bad news.
I purchased a copy of My Childhood Home (copyright 2008) from ABE Books for $17.87 which included tax and shipping.
It appears to be the exact same book as Becoming Abraham Lincoln (copyright 2017) except Becoming AL is hardback, and My Childhood is softbound.
There was nothing in the Becoming book to indicate it was previously issued as My Childhood Home.
At least I didn't spend $576
(According to my class on government spending and accounting that means I saved over $500 to put towards the purchase for more Lincoln books! My wife says no!!!)
