Well, I admit I'm very biased in this, so I think my comments need to be taken with a grain of salt. But, to have a book that considers Lincoln as a near singular example of excellence in a unfiltered leader and then get the following as a book blurb: Doris Kearns Goodwin, Pulitzer Prize-winning author and presidential historian- "Indispensable provides a masterly, absorbing, and exceptionally original approach to the age-old study of leadership." is a fairly objective indication that the book is worth reading. That's not a bad blurb from the author of "A Team of Rivals." Dan M. _______________________________________________ http://box535.bluehost.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
