RE: Carl Sandburg and Lincoln
Interesting Bill, especially since Sandburg lived in Michigan for as long as he did. I think much of it comes because Sandburg isn't taught in English classes as he would have been at one point, so many aren't familiar with the Chicago Poems or Fog. I once started to read Chicago to a friend who is highly literate and she had no idea what I was talking about.

I was looking at a Barnes and Noble in Urbana (where, at the University of Illinois, Sandburg's papers were deposited) and all I saw by him was Honey and Salt, which isn't one of his better collections of poems, and that's about it. I wonder if maybe a new anthology not as detailed as his Pulitzer Prize-winning Collected Poems of Carl Sandburg might be brought out, but I doubt anyone in the academic community would do it, and I honestly don't know how successful (read profitable) it would be.

Of course, the single volume Lincoln biography is still in print, so there might be some interest.

Thanks for letting us know about your unscientific poll.

Rob
