Virtual Book Signing at Abraham Lincoln Book Shop

Over the weekend both Dan Van Haften and I appeared for a virtual book signing at the Abraham Lincoln Book Shop in downtown Chicago. What a magnificent place that book shop is. Dan Weinberg did a great job interviewing. He surprised us with an original Lincoln letter, and asked us demarcate it into the six elements of a proposition. It was fun, despite being allotted just five minutes for the task. Will add a link to the video as soon as it is up on the net.

In Morristown New Jersey

Wednesday flew from Des Moines to Newark to visit daughter and her family in Morristown. A new baby boy. All right in the middle of the most hectic final editing. The number of details flowing together is incredible. The velocity masks the complexity. It is like riding the rapids. Ted Savas has put together an incredible team.

Reading Galleys

My co-author, Dan Van Haften, and I are reading galleys now. Preparing for a December release of Abraham Lincoln and the Structure of Reason. It has been three years getting to this point. Looking forward to holding the book in my hands. Many stories to tell. Stay tuned.
