I have read multiple books about Abraham Lincoln (and the Civil War era), but Mr. Allendorf's book provided me with new information and insights.The book is well-researched and heavily footnoted; there is also a comprehensive biblography. Using the words of the principals themselves, Mr. Allendorf tells a compelling tale of the friendship of two Illinois attorneys, Abraham Lincoln and Gustav Koerner. While these two individuals could not have been more different in their upbringing and education (and their respective pathways to the legal profession), they forged a friendship in which Mr. Koerner ultimately placed a significant role in Lincoln's journey to the White House.In setting the stage, the author reviews the European and German history that precipitated the exodus of many Germans to the United States in the early and middle 19th Century. He also provides interesting insights into American history leading up to the Civil War, with much emphasis on the Midwestern states of Kansas, Missouri, Illinois and Indiana. Interestly, immigration was a topic of discussion in those days as well.In addition to describing the U.S.A. as it was in the years before the Civil War, Mr. Allendorf illuminates the politcal strategies of individuals such as Stephen Douglas, Edward Bates, William Seward and Salmon P. Chase (in this regard, see Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin). While Mr. Lincoln always provides a rich foundation for a story, I was intrigued to learn about Mr. Koerner (who servied on the Illinos Supreme Court) and his fellow countrymen's influence on American history.I recommend your consideration of this book; enjoy.
