RE: It's out of my hands
The news wasn't what I what I had hoped to hear. The U of I Press rejected my proposal. They gave as the reason budgetary constraints which requires them to be "exceedingly picky" as to what they publish. So, I'm going to take some time away from the proposal and write a talk I'm giving in February on Ida Tarbell's struggle to present Lincoln's Indiana years in a better light than did his earlier biographers.
I've got a number of other presses that I'm going to approach. I'm, not giving up. This is a story that needs to be told and I'm the person to do it. It will get published. 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
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
