Media Reviews

"...Harness profiles a personal and political Lincoln in a variety of settings and states of mind. Her informal style lends a familiarity to the narrative, interspersing quotes, excerpts, anecdotes, and speeches into the straightforward story line....An enormous amount of information and a number of complex issues are pared down to an approachable, satisfying sketch of the simple country lawyer who became 'Father Abraham, the Emancipator.'"

   -- Kirkus
