Congratulations to the winners!

One of the winners, James Conroy, happened to be speaking in Springfield and the Lincoln birthday celebrations so I (along with at least one other member of the discussion group) got to congratulate him personally. Jim is a very nice guy and a really good speaker as well as author. His first book on the Hampton Roads Peace Conference was also fantastic (and I think was a finalist for the Lincoln Prize the year it was published).
