Achorn argues that Lincoln and Kennedy were both "transformational presidents" who led the country through periods of great change. Lincoln presided over the Civil War and the abolition of slavery, while Kennedy led the country through the Cold War and the civil rights movement. Both men were also gifted orators who inspired the nation with their words.

However, Achorn also notes that there were significant differences between the two presidents. Lincoln was a self-made man who rose from humble beginnings, while Kennedy was born into a wealthy and powerful family. Lincoln was a pragmatic politician who was willing to compromise to achieve his goals, while Kennedy was a more idealistic leader who often clashed with Congress.

Despite their differences, Achorn argues that Lincoln and Kennedy were both great presidents who left a lasting legacy on the country. He concludes that "they were both men of vision and courage who led the country through some of its most challenging times." Lincoln and Kennedy: A Pair to Compare is a fascinating book that provides a new perspective on two of America's most iconic presidents. Achorn's writing is clear and engaging, and he does a masterful job of comparing and contrasting these two great leaders. Lincoln and Kennedy: A Pair to Compare is a must-read for anyone interested in American history or biography.
