RE: Ida Tarbell Lincoln Papers Online
Gene,

Tarbell was one of the early "realist" biographers of Lincoln along with William E. Barton, Albert J. Beveridge and Carl Sandburg. The first chapter of my book deals with these four and how they influenced Lincoln scholarship from the late 1890s up through 1926. Plus, I like that I can sit in my office in my shorts and t-shirt and read her mail.Confused

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
