Thanks for the kind words, Gene. I sincerely appreciate them. I'm typing as fast as I can. Big Grin

For Sandburg's early radical days, I would recommend Philip Yannella's The Other Carl Sandburg (he was in the documentary talking about Sandburg's Socialist past).

Also, there was a professor in the film named Evert Villarreal whose doctoral dissertation was called Recovering Carl Sandburg: Politics, Prose and Poetry After 1920 which tries to explain why Sandburg fell from literary grace. The dissertation is available online.

Finally, for those of you who just can't get enough of Sandburg, I attach a copy of my 19 page working bibliography that has just about all I could find on the man (although it's changing as I find more). Much of it was taken from Niven's biography and a book by Dale Salwak that is a reference guide, but I've added things that Salwak didn't have (especially book reviews) and there are articles which I have but haven't put in there yet. There are also some works that tangentially concern Sandburg (more along the lines of popular vs. academic history). By the way, if you look at the bottom of page 12 you will notice an entry from some clown who thinks he knows a lot about Sandburg. I would steer clear of him, if I were you. Big Grin
