This is an hour by hour account of the events leading to Lincoln's assassination by John Wilkes Booth. Jim Bishop's ability to capture the political mood of the era and the times and lives of people is nothing short of spectacular if not magical. The reader will discover that the chain of events leading to the death of Lincoln was filled with twists and turns. From Lincoln's strange dream that he was going to be assassinated to John Wilkes Booth failed multiple plans to kidnap and then kill the president, this book has it all and it is the ultimate companion and finale to Doris Kearns Goodwin’s excellent book: “Team of Rivals – The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln.” ]]> <![CDATA[Fawaz added 'The Bronze Horseman']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/78604532 The Bronze Horseman (Paperback) by Paullina Simons

by امين معلوف

Thanks to all of you for your interest in Amin Maloufe's book. To my knowledge this book hasn't been translated into English yet. It is available in French and Arabic thus far. This is a consice historical and political book about the events that shaped our world in the past 60 years. From the fall of the USSR to the collapse of Berlin wall to the events of 9/11. It also talks about the state of the Arab world and the dangers that human civilization faces in the 21st century.
