Reading Goodwin's book, I was struck by Lincoln's leadership skill.  Somehow though, this book just didn’t really impress me much. <br/><br/>Hopeful...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/16325134">more...</a>]]></body>

This book helped me to see some aspects of his character and operating style in support of principles and practice that can be profitably applied.

As far as a leadership book goes I think it is one of the better ones I've read so far, much better than any of the crap put out by Maxwell.

    <body><![CDATA[I listened to this on CDs in the car, which is my favorite way to do biographies.  I've always known Lincoln to have been a great leader, and now I have better insight to his presidency and the problems he had while in office.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I really enjoyed this book.  I never realized what a hard time Lincoln had finding good leaders.  It was interesting to see how Phillips likened Lincoln's leadership style with management styles that are taught in College today.]]></body>
