A Note of Thanks to the Mainstream Media

I would like to thank the “mainstream media” for helping me to sell a boatload of books in the past week with its ignorant and laughingly uninformed views on Lincoln, his war, and Ron Paul’s comments on the subject.

A few minutes ago my Amazon.com sales ranking for The Real Lincoln, which has been out for more than five years, was a very respectable 3,889 (the lower the number the larger the sales).

By contrast, I checked on Doris Kearns-Goodwin’s Team of Rivals, which has a ranking of 39,136.

Poor, hapless Harry Jaffa’s A New Birth of Freedom ranks a dismal 193,732.
