RE: A Sandburg Stumper
All are good guesses, but none are correct. The person who said this is still an academic.

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
All are logical guesses, but not correct. I'll have another clue later in the day.

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Not sure about Harold Holzer's stance on Sandburg, but I'll guess him first and then Doris Kearns Goodwin.

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Sorry Laurie, but it's neither Holzer nor Goodwin.
Next clue. His first name is Robert, but you will never find him by using that. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Excellent guess Steve, but I'm not anywhere near as eloquent.
