RE: A Sandburg Stumper
The literary critic Edmund Wilson once wrote that the worst thing to ever happen to Abraham Lincoln after being shot by Booth was to fall into the hands of Carl Sandburg. Who said "But on the most single important question in American history – which is, of course, at the heart of Sandburg’s epic endeavor – Wilson was utterly wrong, and Sandburg was utterly right."
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
