I too enjoy listening to Shelby Foote, sort of an American treasure. However if you haven't read Thomas J. Dilorenzo's the "Real Lincoln", it sheds a truer light on the man than what some slobbering historians and others have written, Lincoln was no saint. I found it fascinating. As far as I know, Foote did no histories on that President in depth and Ken Burns does not go into such singularly deep research.

The Confederates were Socialists, and Democrats, and traitors too.
