Did Lincoln Regret Marrying Mary?

[Mike B.]

Thanks Eva.
I know differences on Mary emotions run high.
I am not trying to pick fights. If you are not convinced by me, I am OK with that.
I am also aware of Mary's very positive qualities, she was without doubt very intelligent, well educated, witty, a good writer, and very muched loved her children and her husband. I am also convinced some of her faults lay with psychological problems beyond her control as per Dr. James Brust. I just think the evidence that she was a major reason he was President isn't very strong and consists mostly of some ex post facto opinions and some misunderstandings of Lincoln like from Edward Evertt.

Thanks Gene,
I co-edited the book with Frank Williams.
I wrote a chapter on that very point and would appreciate feedback from you.
