Title: Not much new to add - really nice biography of a great man
Product review: This book has been reviewed to death, but I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed reading it. Abraham Lincoln is such a fascinating subject that it would probably be difficult to write a poor biography of him, but Mr. Donald certainly did a fine job. I have not read Mr. White's new biography of Lincoln (or any others for that matter), so I cannot compare this biography to any others, but I think this book was well-written and well-researched. It was not a dry read in any way.If anything, it was a bit short. It left me wanting more. I would have enjoyed more information regarding the trials and subsequent sentences of his accused assasins. I would have liked more information regarding the lives of his wife and children after his death. But if you choose this as your Lincoln biography, I do not think you will be disappointed.
