Three books to a desert island

[ELCore]

I'd love to have the "Recollected Words"...(but those start at ~70$)

There are a few used copies available for a lot less than that, as long as you don't care about the condition.

Amazon

I was fortunate to get a fine used copy for $50 back in 2009.

My 3 Lincoln Books to have on a deserted island

1. Abraham Lincoln by Benjamin Thomas
2. The Story Life of Lincoln by Wayne Whipple (a collection of short stories about Lincoln)
3. Lincoln, An Illustrated Biography by Phillip Kunhardt (a great, big, picture book)

I have thought about getting the Benjamin Thomas book for quite a while now. I, too, like the Kunhardts' book. Do you know their follow-up volume, Looking for Lincoln?
