4/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Dec-20-2008; Lotta Wisdom in Little Book; It's tough to sum up Lincoln's "wit and wisdom" in a single volume, but this little book takes a valiant stab at it.

1/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Mar-08-2007; Big Man, Little Book; I was completely disappointed in the size of this book. The city guide of Possum Trot, Kentucky has to be bigger then this. Measuring in at a hefty 3&1/2" tall, its no Abe Lincoln. It was more like something you find in a CrackerJack box!; read full review | report as inappropriate
