Abraham Lincoln A History Ten Volume Set di John Nicolay
This is more than a history of Lincoln, it is really a history of the United States through the Civil War. There are many chapters where Lincoln is not even mentioned. Often fascinating, but occasionally a bit dry (which is why I deducted a half star). This really explains a lot of the politics leading up to the Civil War that I found very interesting, and is not usually explained in most other Lincoln biographies.
