Customer Review: The thing I appreciated most about this book is that Goodwin allows us to experience the voices of women and the importance of the women around Lincoln, Chase, Seward, and Bates.

Customer Review: I'm going to give this book and the series in general 3 stars. I liked parts of it but as another reviewer said I caught myself skimming through portions of it. I wouldn't tell someone not to read it but it wasn't one of my favorites.
Customer Review: I'm devouring this enormous book so fast that I'm getting a "Snowball Headache" LOL
His approach to investing is well displayed in the book and fun to watch develop over time as he moves from selling newspapers and used golf balls to become an icon in the world of finance. His life, and the... more info
