Narration Concering Books Love is Eternal

Mary Todd Lincoln always seemed a dour woman in the background from a historical perspective. However, this book depicts an intelligent woman prevented from achieving her full potential by conventions of the time period and circumstances. Though Lincoln would not allow her to make use of her political contacts, she could and did give input on Lincoln's ideas and speeches, in addition to providing a safe haven for him when he needed it. In spite of suffering from skull fracture as a result of a carriage accident, being tormented by society as to her status in their marriage, losing a child, and being accused of treason while Lincoln was president, she remained Lincoln's touchstone to the day he was assassinated. I took my time finishing the book, though, because I knew how it would end for these two remarkable people.

Crit Of Books Love is Eternal

This is the second time I read this novel. Loved it the first time, bored and frustrated the second.What I liked both times: 1) the research was amazing. Details of the dresses Mary Todd Lincoln wore, recorded conversations from numerous diaries and newspapers and descriptions of her surroundings.2) conversations that seemed as though they were true (though sometimes stilted) between and Abraham.What I did not like. Tedious descriptions of the war - where the troops were and defeats of the war.

What a great story! I'm really glad I read this book. Mary Todd was fierce! At times, I got a bit lost with all the names, but other than that, it's written beautifully and gives us great insight into their love story.

Love is Eternal is historical fiction and tells the story of Abe & Mary Lincoln through Mary's eyes. It tells of the time from when they met through his assassination. Mary was a complex woman, with a goal of living in the White House from a very young age. She was at times enchanting, supporting, shrewish and driven. Abraham Lincoln is always shown as such a big character that Mary is often overshadowed, but she was very much involved in both his political and personal life. While I know

I learned so much about Mary Todd Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln, Kentucky, and the CivilWar by reading this book of mine! Really enjoyed it! Amazing Author as well!

Irving Stone is quickly becoming a favorite author. Never a great fan of reading history just for the sake of reading it, Stone brings history to life by using the historical fiction genre and providing interesting dialogue. I didn't know much about the Lincolns when I started reading this, other than what they teach in school. It was indeed sad how Abraham Lincoln struggled with melancholy and depression, but I found it amazing how he recognized it and usually worked himself through it. Despite

I am a huge Lincoln buff, so this is my all time favorite of Irving Stone's books. Amazing story of Mary Todd and Abraham Lincoln from their early courtship through their lives together.

I found this book extremely interesting. I didn't know anything at all about Abraham Lincoln's wife or children. I really enjoyed the book, even though Mary wasn't a character I loved. But it's always interesting to learn about real people and their struggles. And once you learn more of their personal struggles, you can understand their actions so much better. For any history lover, this is a must-read.
