review 1: Since I knew that the Lincoln's did not have a daughter, the title most certainly drew me in. It was offered as a Kindle SINGLE, so I bought it and read it quite quickly. The tragic loss of their son after they were in the White House ended the relationship with this young lady.......it was just too painful for Mary to rememer the good times when they children played together. I am a Lincolnophile, and usually will read just about anything to do with this remarkable president, or his family. If you like Lincoln, you'll like this book.
review 2: Being a bit of a history buff, I must admit that I was anxious to read this short novel. Written by Cecelia Holland from the diaries of 16 year-old Julia Taft, this book brings more insight into Lincoln in his f... moreirst 6-9 months in the White House. Her witten comments parallel the work of many others who knew/worked with/worked for Lincoln, and presents a more personal side to Lincoln. I encourage anyone interesed in Lincoln (especially) to read this book. And, to also consider reading "Lincoln the Unknown" by Dale Carnegie. less
