But, by the end, I was loving the poetry more than the poor, mutilated stories. I feel like it is an average collection of above-par works (or sections of works). So the rating might not be accurate. But I couldn't rate those letters from Lincoln less than a 4. William Bennett succeeds gloriously in achieving what he set out to do: "aid the time-honored task of the moral education of the young." How delightful to be let into the inside story of his wife's influence on the project and their road-testing the selections with their own sons. The labor involved in selecting and discarding an untold number of possibilities is not small task. Thank you Mr. Bennett for reacquainting me with some old friends and introducing me to new ones. I would love to see more works like this from well-read collectors of stories reflecting other cultures and societies. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
