History made easy,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Commander in Chief: Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War (Paperback)
A Marrin is a wonderful author. He makes history come alive. He writes in an interesting manner and doesn't have a lot of excess verbage. I have several of his books and have enjoyed each one of them.

The Human Side of Lincoln,
By A Customer
This review is from: Commander in Chief: Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War (Hardcover)
For the first time, I came to know Lincoln not as an iconified hero, but as a funny, direct, engaging and committed human being as I read this book. The author has thorough notes of very detailed research and tells a story that others omitted or overlooked. It made me want to read much more about Lincoln, especially more of the piercing wit and emotional perseverance shared in this book.
