Lincoln's Lie: A True Civil War Caper Through Fake News, Wall Street, and the White House by Elizabeth Mitchell
4.0
Thank you to NetGalley and Counterpoint Press for an Advanced Readers Copy in exchange for an honest review.
This book gave a great retelling of Lincoln and his relationship with the press. It read like a novel, so it would be good for even a casual reader of history to pick up. This isn't a story that's often told, so history buffs would love it too. Even though these events happened 150 years ago, Mitchell's writing makes this seem timely and relevant. I would recommend it to anyone who asks.
