Sidney Blumenthal's third volume
Does anyone know when Sidney Blumenthal's third volume is supposed to appear? I haven't been able to find anything on the web including on Simon and Schuster's website. I read the first volume, which I thought was generally good, but I felt that sometimes Blumenthal got off on tangents that could have been omitted. I have the second volume, which I haven't read yet, but since I've got both the first and the second I want to continue to purchase them. Any info would be appreciated.

The third volume is supposed to come out this September (2019). Blumenthal gave a talk about his Lincoln book series that was just uploaded a few days ago:

Wow - five volumes now! When I met with him 5-6 years ago, he was talking about three volumes. I hope that Congress does not call upon him to testify on any other investigations or I may not live to see the assassination story through his eyes.

Thanks, Steve. I saw that video was up, but didn't have time yet to watch it.
