Anyhoo, I would like to read a biography of Abraham Lincoln, but with there being so many out there, was wondering if you guys could recommend a really good one to me.

Thanks in advance
Hi,

You may like to try out Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln. It is a book written by Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Doris Kearns Goodwin, published by Simon & Schuster. I had read it a few years ago. It focuses on Lincoln's mostly successful attempts to reconcile conflicting personalities and political factions on the path to abolition and victory in the American Civil War. This book is available on amazon, in Kindle format.
