I randomly looked at the Amazon page this morning for my forthcoming book, Lincoln: The Fire of Genius, and noticed that it had a banner acknowledging it as the #1 New Release.
Considering the release date for the book isn’t until September 1, 2022, that’s not a bad start. Of course, the “#1 New Release” is for a subcategory called “Midwest U.S. Biographies,” but there is hope that I can be on the various Best Seller lists soon. You can help by going to Amazon or Barnes and Noble and pre-ordering the book now. Rest assured that you’ll get the best price as it likely will drop before release date and that’s the price you’ll pay.
I introduced the book in an earlier post. I also announced that the foreword was written by political journalist and renowned Abraham Lincoln biographer Sidney Blumenthal.
Many of my recent posts on this website have highlighted of some of the topics covered in the book, so feel free to browse around. I’ll be having some more exciting news coming soon. Check out my Media page for upcoming appearances.
Thank all of you for supporting Abraham Lincoln and my efforts to bring him to a wider audience. In addition to this website, check out the website of the Lincoln Group of DC, the organization of which I am currently president, and where I write a lot more on Lincoln. Be sure to see what the Lincoln Group is doing to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the Lincoln Memorial in May!
Pre-order Lincoln: The Fire of Genius now on Amazon and Barnes and Noble (click on the respective links to pre-order). The price is likely to drop before the final shipment, and any pre-orders will automatically get charged the lower price at fulfillment. Pre-ordering now helps the publisher get a sense of the interest, which could mean a bigger print run. So please go ahead and pre-order without worries. While you’re there, check out my other books.
