Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln by Doris Kearns Goodwin

4.0

It is dificult to have an average or poor book about Abraham Lincoln. Authors appear to reinvent the angle they approach Linoln, since it has been done so many times and many authors have succeeded in telling the remarkable story of arguably are finest American. The mark of a great book is when one closes the book and then reflects on their own character. Lincoln did not only reconcile our nation, but he also reconciled personal poitcal relationships time and time again. The only concluson is that Lincoln was a sound Christian, a student of the new testament. Forgiveness was what he believed in and at the end of the day his high road paid political dividends.
