RE: On the Tarbell Trail
As I'm letting the prologue sit (and going over all the VERY HELPFUL comments from good friends), I've been printing out much of what I've downloaded. These folders are Tarbell's series on Lincoln which appeared in McClure's Magazine. The bottom folder is the series which appeared from November of 1895 through November 1896 while the top folder is the later series which appeared from December 1898 to August 1899.

The correspondence from 1895 and 1896 is about three inches thick. Much of the correspondence surrounding the McClure's series was tossed when the magazine moved its offices. I can't begin to imagine what gems were tossed aside (and it hurt Tarbell very much).

I've already gone through three reams of paper and will likely go through at least a case of paper before it's all said and done.

Best

Abraham Lincoln in the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom.
