Product Information

One of the most influential books of the past fifty years, Team of Rivals is Pulitzer Prize-winning author and esteemed presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin's modern classic about the political genius of Abraham Lincoln, his unlikely presidency, and his cabinet of former political foes. Winner of the prestigious Lincoln Prize and the inspiration for the Oscar Award winning-film Lincoln , starring Daniel Day-Lewis, directed by Steven Spielberg, and written by Tony Kushner. On May 18, 1860, William H. Seward, Salmon P. Chase, Edward Bates, and Abraham Lincoln waited in their hometowns for the results from the Republican National Convention in Chicago. When Lincoln emerged as the victor, his rivals were dismayed and angry. Throughout the turbulent 1850s, each had energetically sought the presidency as the conflict over slavery was leading inexorably to secession and civil war. That Lincoln succeeded, Goodwin demonstrates, was the result of a character that had been forged by experiences that raised him above his more privileged and accomplished rivals. He won because he possessed an extraordinary ability to put himself in the place of other men, to experience what they were feeling, to understand their motives and desires. It was this capacity that enabled Lincoln as president to bring his disgruntled opponents together, create the most unusual cabinet in history, and marshal their talents to the task of preserving the Union and winning the war. We view the long, horrifying struggle from the vantage of the White House as Lincoln copes with incompetent generals, hostile congressmen, and his raucous cabinet. He overcomes these obstacles by winning the respect of his former competitors, and in the case of Seward, finds a loyal and crucial friend to see him through. This brilliant multiple biography is centered on Lincoln's mastery of men and how it shaped the most significant presidency in the nation's history.

Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin (2006) In 1860, in Chicago, Illinois, the Republican Party made a historic choice when it selected Abraham Lincoln to be its candidate for the presidency. The choice stunned each of Lincoln's three rival candidates--William Henry Seward of New York; Salmon P. Chase of Ohio; and Edward Bates of Missouri--all of whom were better known nationally and better connected politically--and each of whom thought he himself would win. Even more surprising, but indicative of his character, is that Lincoln asked these three rivals to join his cabinet, which they did--and they made it work. In a rich historical narrative, Doris Kearns Goodwin brings to life each of these figures, showing their significant individual contributions as well as how they challenged ... Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin (2006) In 1860, in Chicago, Illinois, the Republican Party made a historic choice when it selected Abraham Lincoln to be its candidate for the presidency. The choice stunned each of Lincoln's three rival candidates--William Henry Seward of New York; Salmon P. Chase of Ohio; and Edward Bates of Missouri--all of whom were better known nationally and better connected politically--and each of whom thought he himself would win. Even more surprising, but indicative of his character, is that Lincoln asked these three rivals to join his cabinet, which they did--and they made it work. In a rich historical narrative, Doris Kearns Goodwin brings to life each of these figures, showing their significant individual contributions as well as how they challenged the president and sometimes stung him. What comes across is a deep psychological portrait of Lincoln as a great conciliator and man of vision, always putting the greater good before expediency. And while much has been made of Lincoln's melancholy, it is also true that he was good in company, a born storyteller and jokester. Lincoln is perhaps the most written-about president in history, but in this group biography, Goodwin manages to find some new perspectives on Lincoln and his times. A New York Times Notable Book for the year 2005.

Team of Rivals shows the power of synergy
Goodwin's Lincoln biography, Team of Rivals, shows the power of synergy. They synthesis of diverse viewpoints always results in higher thinking and better results than unilateral thinking. Having taught Covey's "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" for many years in several organizations, I know this is true. Plus, Obama has obviously been influenced by Lincoln's approach to building his cabinet and I wanted to read the book I know had inspired our president elect, a man I most admire! Finally, my daughter who was an American Studies major in college, now an attorney, highly recommended it as a masterpiece of biographical writing -- it reads like a novel, telling many interwoven stories of statesmen and others during the critical time of American history.Goodwin's Lincoln biography, Team of Rivals, shows the power of synergy.

Team of Rivals excells on several levels
"Team of Rivals" is a page-turner. It is a parallel biography of Abraham Lincoln's evolution as a politician and of the men he selected to his cabinet in his first term. As a management study, it provides the reader with an example of executive excellence under stress. It is a study in the ethical use of politics for the good of an organization. Finally, it clearly shows the brilliance of our 14th president in a clear, cohesive, chronological manner. Although it reads like a dramatic novel, this book is among the top level of 'Lincolnography'. It's current relevance as a "how-to" manual for the Obama administration makes it a 'must read' for the serious political observer as well as studens of Lincoln."Team of Rivals" is a page-turner.

Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin, 2006
This book is about President Lincoln`s political rivals who went on to be his Civil War era cabinet. All of these men worked-well during Lincoln`s tenure except Secretary of State Cameron. I believe author Doris Kearns Goodwin did a excellent job with is 800-plus page book. There are some pictures that accompany this book.
