Title: Shows Lincoln's Agreeable and Disagreeable Sides
Product review: "Lincoln" pays ample tribute to its subject's achievements and provides interesting information about Lincoln's earlier life that I wasn't aware of.More interesting are the possibly "negative" sides to his personality--his intense political partisanship, his less than courageous views on race, and his strange relationship with his wife. This isn't to say that Lincoln was not worthy of his reputation, and the book does not aim to strip away the respect so many have for him. The information is simply presented in a matter-of-fact way that shows Lincoln was not perfect but tried to do the best he could within the limits of his world view.All in all, this book is insightful, well researched, and a good place for expert or novice to get a feel for what made President Lincoln tick.
