Reading Lincoln

There is nothing like this book on the market. Reading Lincoln - 2nd Edition - includes annotated reviews of over 375 books ranging from campaign biographies written in the 1860s to works released in 2015. There is at least one selection from every decade 1850 to the present. The citations section now points the reader to the specific page where each annotation can be found, vastly simplifying the search process. In addition to this a new "Lincoln Littles" feature has been added to the main text with unique information about our 16th president. There is even an added chapter featuring Lincoln in alternate media. Many unusual pictures have also been added, some of which can be found in no other book. Reading Lincoln is a powerful and unique resource for teachers, students, and readers (both serious and casual) who want to know more about Lincoln, specifically what books about him might be worth reading. Reviews include books for young adults as well as multi-volume works intended for serious Lincoln scholars. Reading Lincoln gives readers a broad look at all the issues, people, and events surrounding the life of our 16th president even more than if you read a biography because it describes the views of all the major biographers as well as presenting the information.
