Not that there is ever a shortage of Lincoln books - allegedly he is the most-written-about American, and the third-most written-about-human, behind Napoleon and Jesus. Among the specific titles I ran across (and this is just a sampling of what is to come:) The entry "Expo follow-up: The year of Lincoln" is tagged: Abraham Lincoln , book expo |
