RE: Walter Stahr's Stanton
I liked Stanton by Benjamin Thomas and Harold Hyman.
It's an oldie but a goodie.

I'm just beginning Stahr's biography on Seward. Have read the first 100 pages. It has a lot of information, and I'm hoping the story picks up. I would rate it so far as mediocre, as it takes a bit of effort to read. So far I don't feel Stanton's personality coming through. With what I've read so far, I can agree with you all regarding his writing style.
So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
