Episode 36 Author Joshua Claybourn

In this episode, I spoke with author Joshua Claybourn regarding the book he edited on Abraham Lincoln titled "Abraham Lincoln's Wildnerness Years: Collected Works of J. Edward Murr". Abraham Lincoln spent a quarter of his life―from 1816 to 1830, ages 7 to 21―learning and growing in southwestern Indiana. Despite the importance of these formative years, Lincoln rarely discussed this period, and with his sudden, untimely death in 1865, mysterious gaps appear in recorded history.
