Who needs another Lincoln biography? We do — and here's why.

I definitely think there is reason for more Lincoln biographies - he's endlessly relevant for many reasons, and new finds are always being discovered that shed more light. Yet the public still knows so little about his complexities and personal life. I'd like to see more accessible biographies written about him, but with more to them than a Bill O'Reilly style book. Doris Kearns Goodwin just announced a book based in part on Lincoln's leadership.
