It is because of his graphic representation of locales and events, and his use of quotations that make it so for me. My only reservation with Burlingame is that I think he was too harsh on Thomas Lincoln and that he "herndonized" Mary Lincoln.I totally agree with Joe on M. Burlingame. What I especially like about the first volume are the "extended" footnotes on the internet. They are a treasure trove. It's a pity such is not offered for the second volume. |
