Lincoln on Lincoln
Reviews
"An artful biography of Lincoln . . . spliced together from interview, memoir, and speech excerpts, but always in the slain president's own words."—Civil War Book Review
"All the wisdom and insight that we have come to value in the man who presides over the temple at the west end of the Capital Mall."—Civil War Courier
"Adds to our understanding of Abraham Lincoln by demonstrating how consistent he was in his self-image and self-description."—Civil War History
"It is fun to have Lincoln's personal musings on Lincoln gathered so neatly into one place."—Civil War News
"The autobiography Lincoln never had the chance to write. The way in which Zall has blended together various sources is very clever."—James M. McPherson, author of Battle Cry of Freedom
"We do learn to share the young Lincoln's excitement when he earns his first dollar; we cringe as he consents to sew shut the eyes of some intransigent hogs; we laugh at some of the doggerel he composes about his rural background. . . . A collection that casts a strong light."—Kirkus Reviews
"Zall's Lincoln 'autobiography' gives a strong sense of Lincoln's personal style, practical idealism, and poetic wordsmanship."—Library Journal
"A handsome book."—Lincoln Herald
"Handily provides interested readers with autobiographical gleanings from the vast corpus of Lincolniana."—North Carolina Historical Review
"The book is accurate, even meticulous in its selections. There is nothing unreliable."—South Carolina Historical Magazine
"An absorbing trip into the mind of America's greatest president."—Southern Historian
