I wanted this book to be so much more than it was. After reading Lincoln: The Biography of a Writer by Fred Kaplan, I wanted this book to contain some of his more poetic musings instead of just formal addresses and presidential speeches. But I digress. It's still a good book to have on your shelf.

The Lincoln book tower at Ford‘s Theatre Center for Education and Leadership. It‘s a 34 foot tower of books about Lincoln symbolizing that the last word about him may never be written. The tower totals nearly 6,800 books made from aluminum with 205 real titles and it only represents a small amount of the estimated 15,000 books written about Lincoln. 📚💙
