RE: Kudos to Joe Di Cola - he has written another book!
Given that Benjamin Thomas's book on New Salem was published in 1934, this is something that has been long overdue, and I'm glad to see Joe take up the challenge. I was there along with Gene and Bill and our long-suffering wives when we visited New Salem on the very first tour. Just listening to Joe tell various stories was worth the price of the trip. Of course, finding out that Joe was actually my long-lost father also made it an interesting journey. Here's a photo of the four of us in the restored village.

This will be a major event for Lincoln nerds nationwide. Congratulations, Joe!

Best
