A change in plans

Perhaps this could be a solid chapter-in-development for the book?

Lincoln didn’t read John Locke, correct? Only the ideas as they were digested by T. Jefferson & Co.? (The Founders had to read it in French?)
“The state of nature has a law of nature to govern it, which obliges every one: and reason, which is that law, teaches all mankind, who will but consult it.” - John Locke

Thanks for the kind words Amy. Pieces of that will definitely end up in the book. To the best of my knowledge, Lincoln never read Locke.
