The book is divided nicely into categories and is a good book that doesn't need long periods of time for reading. You will enjoy many of the stories and quotations from Mr. Lincoln. A nice compilation.
'Pocket Lincoln' June 27, 2008

As a US History teacher, this small and inexpensive book brings personality and life to one of our most beloved Presidents. An excellent value and one that is more likely to be read and enjoyed than larger, more in depth works. Middle School kids get a kick out of the quotes.
The Pilgrim President August 27, 2007
0 out of 5 found this review helpful
Lincoln was trhe only Pilgrim president, as in the religion and a pilgrim himself. He is famous for his beard with no mustache, the five dollar bill, the penny and freeing tghe slaves. This is his best known book he wrote himself, a collection of quotions divided into chapters. I feel that besides Thomas Jedfferson they are goin g that much backwards from Abe Lincolon into technologial self parodies. The first amendment is pretty much deads, next goes religion then the consitution itself. America lost its sense of humor in the 1990s out of fear of being labeled sexist or racist, namely supposed gothic women and fans of heavy metal music. They come in the hordes and are a dime a dozen. BUT, once you lose your sense of humor about something, more people will laugh AT it. More people are on welfare andf social security than the working class, who losze most of their money to taxes. This book is a must read for followers of the Pilgrim religion.
Very Entertaining May 21, 2008
Reading this book gives insight as to the person Lincoln was. His wit and humor, his suffering and astute personality. You will get to know this great person simply by reading his own thoughts put forth in his own words.
