The book proposal

[Rob Wick]

Joe,

Thanks for the comments. To be honest, some of the chapter titles I will likely change as I get more into the writing of each chapter. I like using quotes for chapter heads and I imagine there will be some that break through as I dig more deeply. That's how I got the title, Star Seeker After Truth.

Tom,

I'm about 40 pages into Goodwin's book and it's moving somewhat slow for me. However, that's likely because I've read Henry F. Pringle's two-volume biography of Taft and Edmund Morris's three-volume biography of Roosevelt. I don't want to skip ahead to read about Tarbell, but most of what she's written so far is just refresher. It will be interesting to see how she handles Tarbell.

By the way, do you know if C-SPAN filmed her speech?

Best
Rob
