Henry,
Truly sorry for getting your name wrong. I have a life-long problem
remembering i before e except after c.
I checked on the Schwartz book and it is too expensive for my budget. I'll
see if I can get by with the information in the books I ordered. I am
perhaps embarrassed to tell you that I am paying 71 cents for your book,
used, and not more than $4 each most of the others. I had to buy one new, so
ordered a set of alphabet blocks for a special niece for Christmas to get
the free shipping.
I'll let you know what I think of your GW book when I read it. It is, to me,
exciting to be able to discuss a book directly with the author. And, I am
very much into the modern times - I want to read new explorations in
history. I want to read analysis of the original sources in light of the
current times. That is what I want to bring to school children, not the
grossly over-glorified notions of the past - but the reality - tell it like
it really was from all points of view! Slavery may have been a great
institution in the view of those who profited from it, but theirs is not the
only justifiable view of the institution.
