This book was a little slow to start but really picked up to become a very engaging book. The book was able to teach me a great deal without dumbing down some very complicated issues. The pictures were interesting but the book was seriously lacking in a map of the Civil War battles. ( ) This 1988 Newbery Medal-winning biography of our Civil War president is warm, appealing, and illustrated with dozens of carefully chosen photographs and prints. Russell Freedman begins with a lively account of Abraham Lincoln's boyhood, his career as a country lawyer, and his courtship and marriage to Mary Todd. Then the author focuses on the presidential years (1861 to 1865), skillfully explaining the many complex issues Lincoln grappled with as he led a deeply divided nation through the Civil War. The book's final chapter is a moving account of that tragic evening in Ford's Theatre on April 14, 1865. Additional content includes a sampling of Lincoln's writings and a detailed list of Lincoln historical sites. This book combines primary sources into a complete biography about the life of Abraham Lincoln. Pictures include primary photographs, paintings, and original documents. The photographs are all in black and white and include the earliest known photograph of Abraham Lincoln. The author includes text evidence to share the life story of this US President. It is an award winning nonfiction book containing pictures and information that is new to many readers. For readers who want to learn more, the author includes a list of sources used in the book as well as a list of other accurate books about Lincoln. This book won the Newberry Medal. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
