"Comparisons between Thomas and Di Cola may be inevitable, and the casual reader may well find Di Cola’s book more satisfying."

Words to be proud of, Joe!

Great review of Joe's book. Thanks for posting Gene. I own a copy and it's my go to reference on Lincoln's New Salem.

Congratulations on your book Joe! Thanks for posting the review, Gene.

This is very exciting! I do treasure that trip so much! Congrats Joe. I’m looking forward to reading it. Gene-congrats to you also!

Just ordered it on Amazon!

Bill,
I hope this finds you and Donna well. You have been missed on subsequent trips which have included Lincoln, IL, Mount Pulaski, IL, and--my favorite--the cemeteries of Menard County. Gene and I are attempting to get something together for this May and, in the fall, the Charleston, IL area where Thomas and Sarah Lincoln settled and had several farms.
While I was composing this, Gene called and told me that you broke your arm. Ouch! I hope you are on the mend!
All the best,
Joe

Yes Joe. I slipped on ice and broke it badly- three breaks. I’ve already had surgery. Again, congrats on the book!

Bill, best with your recovery. Good time to read Joe's book.

Bill,

Sorry to hear about your accident. Anita's right. Now you'll have enough time to read Joe's wonderful book AND have an excuse to do nothing but (not that I ever let that stand in the way of my reading).

Take care.

Best
Rob

[Steve]

Get well Bill.

Thank you everyone. It’s my dominant arm! Interesting how it goes when when you can only use one arm- and the nondominant one at that!
