The popular Railsplitter Podcast continues its on-air discussion of my book, Lincoln: The Man Who Saved America. The first four chapters were discussed on February 8th and the second four chapters on March 8th. They will discuss the rest of the book shortly, so be sure to check their website often for the final date. Also check out their catalog of great podcasts.
Lincoln: The Man Who Saved America was also the topic of my recent presentation at the Lincoln Group of DC. You can watch the C-SPAN broadcast online.
In other news, I just returned from a captivating Battle of Hampton Roads weekend in Newport News, Virginia. The Mariners’ Museum and Monitor Center were hopping with historical reenactors, a full size model of the CSS Hunley, and of course, a full size Monitor on who’s deck you can have coffee with the cook. I even got a behind the scenes tour of the Monitor conservation lab with no other than President Lincoln himself. More on that as soon as I can get my home computer working again.
Until then, check out the Railsplitter podcasts (Part 1 and Part 2) and the C-SPAN video.
