10 Lincoln/Civil War books that most influenced your thinking.
I recently was asked on FB to list the 10 books that most influenced my life. I would like to ask the same of my fellow Forum members. I think this will be fun. The lists don’t have to be in any particular order. Also. Let’s say multiple volumes in a set can count as one book?
Here’s mine:
1) Abraham Lincoln by Carl Sandburg
2) Battles and Leaders of the Civil War
3) The Civil War by Shelby Foote
4) Abraham Lincoln by Benjamin P. Thomas
5) Twenty Days by Dorothy Meserve Kunhardt and Philip Kunhardt
6) The Army of the Potomac Trilogy by Bruce Catton
7) American Brutus by Michael Kauffman
8) Come Retribution by William Tidwell
9) The Personal Memoirs of U.S. Grant
10) Lust for Fame: The Stage Career of John Wilkes Booth by Gordon Samples.

All great books!
