    As well written as Team of Rivals

    1864 is an excellent work on Lincoln and the last year of the Civil War. The reader gets a more indepth view of Lincoln, the man, the president & the politician. This book isn't a glossy hero worshiping bio but a well researched and developed American history book. This work is one of those I'll keep on the bookshelf.

    Engaging Look at Final Months of Lincoln's Presidency

    Flood's book presents many engaging stories of Lincoln's final year or so as president. The Lincoln stories abound in this volume. Many of them illustrate the character of man who found himself in one of those trying times as leader during difficulties. This book is a slow, plodding read, but in the end, it adds so much more to what we know about Lincoln.

    Not much new

    I have spent the year reading everything I could get my hands on about Abraham Lincoln. As the most popular subject(person) of all time to write about, I understand that it is tough to find new information on Lincoln. Concentrating on the last full year of his life was an interesting angle. If a person chooses this book to read, I am sure he or she would enjoy it. The writing is fluid and easy to read. The storytelling aspect is readable, but somewhat choppy.
    If a person were to choose one book to read about Abraham Lincoln, I would recommend Ron White's recently published biography.
