Reviews
"A riveting account of the Todds, a family divided by war, a Tolstoyan family unhappy in its own way. By approaching the Civil War through the history of one family, Stephen Berry compels us to see this epochal conflict anew. "House of Abraham" is absolutely first-rate."

Synopsis
For all the talk of the Civil War's pitting brother against brother, no book has told fully the story of one family ravaged by that conflict. And no family better illustrates the personal toll the war took than Lincoln's own. Mary Todd Lincoln was one of fourteen siblings who were split between the Confederacy and the Union. Three of her brothers fought, and two died, for the South. Several Todds -- including Mary herself -- bedeviled Lincoln's administration with their scandalous behavior. Their struggles haunted the president and moved him to avoid tactics or rhetoric that would dehumanize or scapegoat the Confederates. By drawing on his own familial experience, Lincoln was able to articulate a humanistic, even charitable view of the enemy that seems surpassingly wise in our time, let alone his. In House of Abraham, the award-winning historian Stephen Berry fills a gap in Civil War history, showing how the war changed one family and how that family changed the course of the war.

- o***h (25)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaItem arrived in good condition, as described. I was a bit concerned when the item wouldn’t track after a label had been created for shipping (according to shipping updates provided). Upon contacting the seller I received assurance that the the item had just shipped. Then the item started tracking within a day and made its way to me. No complaints on my end, but initially I was worried something had gone wrong. Once it had shipped I received an updated delivery date and then it arrived promptly.A Certain Scientific Accelerator Vol. 3 (#405411853463)
- a***v (277)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaBeautiful book, in condition described. This seller is operating in a strange way. You order the book, the shipping label is created (and ebay considers it "shipped" , and the shipment status never changes, until you, the customer, asks 2 weeks later where the book it. After the ultimatum of please credit or ship in 48 hr, the book ships and arrives no problem.Printmaking Revolution: New Advancements in Technology, Safety, and Sustainabili (#405411314100)
- e***9 (697)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI had ordered this book to give as a gift. I contacted the seller when the item did not arrive on time and they immediately refunded the entire amount (inc s/h) and asked me to let them know if/when it does arrive. It finally did arrive (16 days after shipping!), and when I contacted them the seller wrote back a lovely note and said to keep the item as a gift. I highly recommend this seller!The Little Book of Jewish Celebrations (#296871466599)
