Review title: Splendid reading
Product review: Vidal writes a very entertaining novel based on the facts of Lincoln's life from his innaugaration to his murder. Particularly interesting is his portrait of Mary Todd - she is a fascinating, mad figure who both tormented and consoled Lincoln in his struggles. While it is a big novel, it is rarely difficult to read (except when it gets bogged down in some silly conversational one upmanship between the politicians at various social settings). I enjoyed it very much. Vidal has a very clear idea of what he wants to do and does it very well. A great way to spend several evenings. I had no interest in the civil war period when I picked this up but I was thoroughly entertained.
