1) Hardcover Book Lincoln : A Photobiography by . It is too bad that such a wonderful book is so poorly constructed. Mine fell apart the first time I read it! The text and pictures are wonderful, but the book itself is a waste of money.¤

2) Hardcover Book Lincoln : A Photobiography by . My husband and I were reading this book over each other´s shoulders. The book is so well written that you get a feeling that you now know Lincoln after you are done reading. The author fleshed out who Lincoln was and how he became this extremely famous president. I liked that the author wrote about the war and surrounding events so we could see how they affected Lincoln and vice versa. One note, the soft cover edition is falling apart even after one reading... get a big rubber band to go with the book! But don´t let that dissuade you from buying this book.¤

3) Hardcover Book Lincoln : A Photobiography by . This is a great book for young readers however, be advised I had to order it twice because the pages were falling out of the first book. There is a problem with the glue used in the binding process. The second book arrived and the same problem occured. Because the book was required summer reading for my son who is going into 8th grade, I went to kinkos and spent another $10.00 to have it re-bound. Good luck!¤

This biography on Abraham Lincoln is balanced perfectly, a great blend of basic information and detailed facts, without ever becoming irrelevant or too deep. Photographs enhance this effect, including a page that shows the effects of age on Lincoln´s face throughout his presidency, and historical artifacts like posters and handwriting samples. This is the perfect Lincoln primer for someone just starting research, or for a middle school student with an assignment.¤

5) Hardcover Book Lincoln : A Photobiography by . I´m sure that there are plenty of biographies out there on President Lincoln, but I have not seen any that give us as good a kid-friendly view on him until this one. The photos add an unparalleled personality that draws in the reader, and they truly are beautiful. The book presents a great summary of Lincoln´s life and-- most impressively-- even tackles some of the darker moments, as is approriate for the target elementary/middle school audience. It is informatve and an easy, educational read that should prove great for research.¤
