Average Rating: 
Rating: - Lotta Wisdom in Little Book
It's tough to sum up Lincoln's "wit and wisdom" in a single volume, but this little book takes a valiant stab at it. Personally, I found it a nice work to accompany a more substantial biography or Civil War piece.
Rating:  - Lincoln
Only knowing what little they teach you in grade school about this man, i bought this book to learn a little more. This is a good book to do this. I found after reading this that i really like this great man. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to get a quick glimpse of Mr. Lincoln.
I hope this review is helpful to some.
Rating: - 'Pocket Lincoln'
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.
Rating: - Very Entertaining
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.
Rating: - Nice Work & Collection of Quotes
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.
