LibraryThing Review
Gebruikersrecensie - wmorton38 - LibraryThingAn excellent biography of the 16th President. An older biography, it is extremely well written and provides a different (with its British author) but sympathetic perspective to Lincoln and the Civil War era United States. Well worth reading.
