Mike,

I’ll make sure I mention the Kindle editions next time for sure. I’m hoping to get the Burlingame bio of Lincoln as well, but it might be awhile just like you.

Vince,

I filled out a Top Ten list for this at your site. I’ll make sure I do the same later since I plan to do a lot more top ten lists in the future.

This is a really great top ten list, thanks for the recommendations. I have been much more interested in Lincoln since the History Channel ran a couple short documentaries on his assassination. Anyone can post their own list to our site http://www.toptentopten.com/. The coolest feature is you can let other people vote on the rankings of your list.

Six out of 10 real Abe books, not a bad proportion (I’m leaving out the two McPherson entries, along with Adler and “Lincoln on Leadership”).

Somehow hadn’t heard of “1864: Lincoln at the Gates of History.” I’ll have to follow up.

And, yeah, the Burlingame book is never going to challenge for the top 10, not at $125 a pop. I’m still saving my pennies; hope it’s as good as reputed when I finally do get it.

Suggestion for next month … Would it be possible to note which are the Kindle editions?
