RE: The True Mary Lincoln by Betty Ellison
Speaking of Mary Lincoln biographies...in 100 Essential Lincoln Books (2003) author Mike Burkhimer writes the following regarding Jean Baker's book (1987):

"This is the best biography of Mary Todd Lincoln."

I am curious how folks feel. Jean Baker's book was written 30 years ago. Is it the best biography of Mary Lincoln ever written? Does anyone on the forum think there is a better one?
