"im on the fence about this one... this book swung wildly from insightful and interesting to booooring. it was interesting to read more about a president that we think we all know a lot about. miller did a great job of separating myth from fact, and for the most part, wrote in a very easy-to-read and entertaining manner. in the world we live in today, it would be wonderful to have a leader with the morals of lincoln."
"William Lee Miller paints a picture of Abraham Lincoln as a practical, partisan and ambitious politician who finally was met with "bedrock principles on which he could not compromise." Lincoln, according to Miller, was a "responsible realist" who had little use for political purists such as the abolitionists of the day."
"A somewhat wordy (yet very worthwhile) exploration of Lincoln's moral thought and growth through the practical process of self-education and politics. It would help a serious person examine his or her own moral thinking/behavior and what, in his or her life, impacts that thinking/behavior. The book also, for me, adds to the general knowledge and understanding of Lincoln's life and times. Having done that, I fell I have a better grasp of some aspects of our times."
