Burlingame: A Life

[Mark MacKenzie]

So... do I... need... to get... "A Life?"

Sorry. It just begged the question.
I am looking at the reviews on Amazon for Michael Burlingame's "Abraham Lincoln: A Life" and they seem pretty unanimous. (I know titles of books should be underlined but I couldn't get that to work.)

I can't afford to be a collector. I have neither money nor room for thousands of books. I do want a resource I can go to with assurance of accuracy and truth. Is this it?

Does it read well? I liked David Herbert Donald's style.

Its $125. 2008 pages.

I did search the forum and followed several links outside the forum but did not find a thread specifically on Burlingame.

Thanks for your thoughts.
