There are so many Lincoln bios out there! I've read a couple but I am not done. Recommendations? I am interested in his whole life, or on his life as politician and then president. I don't want a bio that mostly focuses on his childhood or marriage, for example. Was going to get Sandburg's, but then saw some reviews that called it windy and dry. I have ordered the Foner bio of Lincoln. Others? Is this it?

This is more of a study of the cultural changes (revolutions) that occurred before, during, and after the Civil War. The essays that focus on Lincoln are framed with this context. I highly recommend it, but you may want to look elsewhere :)(less)
