Quick Thoughts on Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln
Doris Kearns Goodwin, Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln, Richard Thomas Simon Schuster Audio 2005 (Audio CD) ISBN: =”0743539133”
My Review 4/5
Good book that covers the years leading up to President Lincolns assassination. Though the title led me to believe this book would be more about cabinet decisions it was ultimately a discussion of how Lincoln balanced the various egos and political ambitions of those in his cabinet.
I wish it had spent a little more time on how the cabinet fared after the death of Lincoln. Still a good book.
