RE: What are your top five Lincoln books?
Laurie,
Donald's is still one of the best, but in terms of single-volume bios, I like Thomas better. I don't know that I can put my finger on any particular reason, other than a personal preference. I also liked A. Lincoln by Ronald C. White, especially his interpretation of Lincoln's speeches, but there's something about Thomas that makes it stand out for me. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
