And There Was Light: Abraham Lincoln and the American Struggle by Jon Meacham

dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

It’s the historian’s job to write without projecting modern sensibilities on figures from the past, and Meacham has done that so well here. To be so engaged with a book full of information that I mostly already knew is a testament to his storytelling.
