Contrary to my presumptions, Lincoln worked very hard and lost many elections and battles in war. His ability to construct a sentence is unlike any other. That allowed him to express himself clearly and precisely while showing his conviction, spirit, and humor.
At the end of the day, he trusted himself unconditionally and the world benefited because of him.
Narrator is good, brings some personality to the man, inflection change on quotes so the listener is aware.
A little dry at times, but it is a biography so you know what you've signed up for.

Would you listen to A. Lincoln again? Why?
I doubt I would listen to the book again but ONLY because it is so long. The story is very well told and Mr. Weideman's voice is very suited for this narrative.What was one of the most memorable moments of A. Lincoln?
Feeling the personal pressures and heartaches being brought to life that Mr. Lincoln suffered through both personally and politically/professionally. We know details of his Presidency, but to add in the personal side of what he went through was very eye-opening.What does Bill Weideman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Tone and emotion. The emotion put into Mr. Lincoln's thoughts and comments truly bring Lincoln to life in a way that self-reading the book would not have done.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The death of the Lincoln's son and then so shortly afterward a dearly loved family friend was touching in a deeply almost invasive-to-their-lives feeling way. It was both perfectly written and read.Any additional comments?
I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Civil War history or the life of Abraham Lincoln. The details given about those close to or involved with Lincoln either personally or professionally could bog the story down but they don't. They enhance and fill out this biography into a full-bodied story of not only a great leader but of a man with deep emotions and well thought out actions.Extremely thorough without being boring!
