Honorable Mentions for Lincoln Prize
Given all the controversy surrounding the awarding of the Lincoln Prize to Doris Kearns Goodwin I thought it appropriate to acknowledge the three honorable mentions. They include: Carol Bundy for The Nature of Sacrifice, Margaret Creighton for The Colors of Courage, and Richard Miller for Harvard’s Civil War. I’ve read all three books and learned a great deal.

"In this stunning and well-researched book, Kevin Levin catches the new waves of the study of memory, black soldiers, and the darker underside of the Civil War as well as anyone has... Levin is both superb scholar and public historian, showing us a piece of the real war that does now get into the books, as well as into site interpretation."
