Book Reviews of Commander in Chief: Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War
Book Review: History made easy
Summary: 4 Stars
A Marrin is a wonderful author. He makes history come alive. He writes in an interesting manner and doesn't have a lot of excess verbage. I have several of his books and have enjoyed each one of them.
Summary of Commander in Chief: Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War
In this highly praised examination of Lincoln and his times, Albert Marrin shows how a principled but imperfect man-brilliant and determined but also cautious and prejudiced-grew under the pressure of personal tragedy and national crisis to become our greatest president. A beautifully researched, riveting account of Lincoln and the Civil War period, Commander in Chief was named an ALA Best Book for Young Adults and a Booklist Editors' Choice.United States Civil War Books
