RE: What are you reading now?
I'm currently reading a book called Everybody's History written by Keith Erekson. I came across this book by accident while looking for some information on Albert J. Beveridge on Google. It's about the Lincoln Inquiry, a group of people from southwestern Indiana who formed the Southwestern Indiana Historical Society and eventually worked to improve the reputation of Lincoln during the Indiana years. The book, which is very well written, is based on Erekson's dissertation, which was written at Indiana University. It is published by the University of Massachusetts Press. It's a bit pricy for the paperback ($26) but in my opinion, it's worth the cost.
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
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
