There was a (brief) meeting in Philadelphia of the East Coast Sub-Committee. It happened at the Embassy Suites swimming pool. The sub-committee moves that the book "Team of Rivals" be the book club choice. It fits the "Abraham Lincoln" bill (no pun intended!!) and has an accounting of the Civil War and Gettysburg. Greg and I have both read it and really liked it. Ok, well, we don't really read anything anymore. But we both listened to it.
What say ye all? And, does anyone want me to set you up to get an email when people post comments to the blog?

Sounds good -- I'm in for "Team of Rivals." And thanks for setting me up to get comments.
ReplyDeleteSounds good to me. I've already reserved my copy at the library.
ReplyDeleteDitto..
ReplyDeleteSister Rytting told us about Lincoln's cottage, where he spent about 1/4 of his presidency. It is in Gettysburg and is about an hour tour. Anyone interested going before or after the reunion? Here is the link: http://www.lincolncottage.org
ReplyDeleteI just got my copy of the book in the mail..wow, it is quite LARGE. And about your other question, do I want to be set up???? YEs, please
ReplyDeleteAnyone wanting to actually have a Lincoln in their cabin can do so for a very reasonable price.
ReplyDeleteOk, mom, I set up your emails.
