RE: The Shadows Rise
Just finished reading this book. It's pretty good. It's not a retelling of the story of Lincoln in New Salem and his relationship with Ann. It is an examination of letters and interviews , mostly letters to Herndon and notes from interviews by Herndon compared and commented on. There is more substance and documentation to the story of their relationship than I thought. I found the letters from the Rutlidge family compelling.

I just found where many of these letters have been collected into a book "Herndon's Informants -

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
