    About this series

    Abraham Lincoln called "Billy" Herndon, “My man always above all other men on the globe.” They were business partners for 16 years. After Lincoln's assassination Herndon did interviews with Lincoln's family and friends for this biography. Co-author Jesse Weik also conducted many original interviews. The result - although not without flaws - has been recognized as one of the most important biographies of The Great Emancipator ever published.
    Here for the first time is the audiobook performed 'in character' as Herndon, Lincoln, and the people who helped shape a great President. The story is also illustrated with many different genres of music - from frontier folk to orchestral to dramatic Americana - providing an entertaining listening experience about a crucial era in American history.

      Dusty Springfield, Reluctant Queen of Blue-Eyed Soul

      Mar 3, 2017

      Despite her standing across the Atlantic as one of the crown jewels of British pop, in American histories of 1960s music Dusty Springfield tends to float around the edges as an outlier. Among female soul singers, black and white, her star is well eclipsed by those of Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, and Tina Turner, to name just a few, while among “British Invasion” protagonists she remains an afterthought to the Beatles, the Stones, the Who, Van Morrison, and many more. But in late 1968 Springfield found herself the starring player in one of the more quietly remarkable moments in American popul
