RE: What are the important questions surrounding Lincoln?
Actually, Tarbell didn't. She was in Paris, sending back items to McClure's and she wanted to work on French history. McClure basically begged her to come back and to coordinate his idea of making McClure's into a "Lincoln Bureau" with first-hand accounts from people who knew Lincoln, and then that would become McClure's series. Within a few weeks, McClure realized that wouldn't work and convinced Tarbell to write it. From there, she was hooked.
Thanks, Gene. That definitely will be part of it. 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
