RE: What are you reading now?
I just finished Keith Erekson's book Everybody's History, which I think I posted on earlier. It is about the Lincoln Inquiry in the 1920s and 1930s which was a group of local historians in southwestern Indiana who worked to raise the reputation of Lincoln during his Indiana years and to rehabilitate the Indiana years in general. It is an excellent book and has several references to Tarbell, Sandburg, Beveridge, Barton and Randall. I was in historiographical heaven!
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
