5.0

Shocked that I had never read this before. Incredibly readable for a text written in 1845.

I sought out this edition because of Blight's editorship. I have a deep faith in his opinions as a Historians. The introductory essay, notes, and selection of reviews, speeches, etc. following the text are all thoughtful, informative, and really support the reading experience.

This required reading for everyone. An American classic, if such a thing exists.
