Team of Rivals is an excellent book (and is being made into a movie) but it is not a biography in the traditional sense of biography. It focuses on a particular moment in time rather than Lincoln's life. For example, there is little discussion of the problems he was having with Mary Todd Lincoln or the illness of his children.
