What people on Hacker News said
Great biography into Lincoln and his cabinet. He was truly a unique president who was able to convert people who hated him into his biggest admirers.
Very lovely book about Lincoln's genius as a master of men and of personalities, of being downright kind and truly listening to the people.
A remarkable work of history and portrait of a man
