Lincoln's Melancholy: How Depression Challenged a President and Fueled His Greatness
I really enjoyed this book and getting to know more about Lincoln because I never knew how humorous and kind he was. It's hard when learning history in school to see people who lived before you as being human too and I really enjoy these biographies for humanizing people for me. I think the author did a good job in presenting the different opinions people had on events in Lincoln's life we aren't completely sure about. I really adore Lincoln now and I really enjoyed that anecdote about him being president during the civil war and reading the satire about himself. The only thing is that towards the end the book started to feel redundant because the author's overall theme for the book was talking about Lincoln through the lens of his supposed depression and it just was a flat ending but again ending books is harder so.
