Thomas (read 22 Jan 1993) This is considered the best one-volume biography of Lincoln, so I read it. It was published in 1952. I found the chapters on Lincoln's early life absorbing and most enjoyable. The later life has been the subject of so much I have read recently--antebellum years and the Civil War--that it seemed well-trodden territory to me. The book presents a good appreciation of Lincoln, and I concur in its view. An excellent book. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
