Your best of 2015?

[Eva Elisabeth]

A little late, but - what was your favorite read - new or old - in 2015?

As always a difficult decision as one reads quite a lot. Probably a good criterium is which of these quite several instantly pop up in the mind.

In mine does Abe & Fido, lovingly written, the description of Fido's assassination" brought tears to my eyes.

Betty's "Alias Paine" - well written, not any "exhausting", and lots of unique new (to me) info.

"Decapitiation of the Union" as so thoroughly ...., many interesting topics and questions, and at times provocative conclusions. On some I agree, on some not, quite some interesting points/ideas were new, but all is well-argued and researched ....

Finally I found Weichmann's book an interesting read and amazing compilation (well, and then there was the Fanny Steward bio...I'll stop here. Your turn!)
