The book proposal

[Joe Di Cola]

Rob,

I am well into "The Bully Pulpit" and find it hard to set aside. However, I agree with you that the stuff on "Teedie" and "Will" is not as interesting as the chapters on McClure and his writers. Reading about TR and Taft is old hat after reading other tomes on them. I am utterly fascinated about the McClure's writers. I had known about them, but am learning more. I had even read Lincoln Steffens' autobiography when I was in college.

So...I can hardly wait to read your book on Ida Tarbell. I am glad you chose to do this. Keep at it!

All the best,

Joe
