I can lend you "Lincoln at Cooper Union". It's been a minute since I read it, but it covers the political activities of Lincoln leading up to the 1860 election - so a very different window into the man than the more common framing of Walt Whitman's "Captain" during the crisis of the war.

I can't wait for our next class!

And, the book "Team of Rivals" by Doris Kearns Goodwin has been recommended as a good Lincoln book. It was the basis of the movie "Lincoln" (that I recommended).
