My Fellow Readers:

As you may have noticed I have not posted recently on the blog. I have super busy the last couple of weeks. If you have not caught my interview on NPR on State of Affairs, I recommend going to their web site and listening to the interview on my book Lincoln and the Speeds. I was also in Rowan County and did a presentation on General Burbridge. I was really welcomed by the historical society, and had a good time talking to the residents of the county. They have already invited me to come back and do another lecture. Today, I will be in Springfield, Kentucky signing books at the Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks re-enactment of the their wedding at the Lincoln Homestead. I will be there at 2:30 pm, so come on out and see a historic re-enactment and enjoy the beautiful weather.  This coming weekend I will be in Chicago, Illinois and will be doing a virtual booksigning at the Abraham Lincoln Bookstore on Saturday at 12 noon. After that I have a break for the hot days of July, then I will start up again in August. Keeping looking at the web site, we should have another article soon on Guerilla Warfare in Kentucky.

Dear Fellow Readers:

Things have really been having the last couple of weeks. I have done photography around town for the Louisville in the Civil War book and tomorrow I will be at the Bluegrass Festival of Books. I will be at the Joseph Beth Booksellers from 9 to 5. Hope to see everyone.  

My Fellow Readers.

Just a reminder that May 17 from 9 to 5 I will be at the Bluegrass Festival of Books. Hope to see my Lexington friends there.

My fellow readers:

This saturday at 2 pm at Joseph Beth Booksellers in Lexington, Ky. I will be on a panel discussing Lincoln. Come by and say Hi. The Southern Kentucky Book Festival went well, I sold quite a few books and met some really nice people at the show.

My Dear Fellow Readers:

Just to let you know, I will be in Bowling Green on April 19 at the Southern Kentucky Festival of Books. I also have some good news, on June 13th the day before my Lincoln Homestead booksigning, I will be on WFPL-89.3’s (NPR) State of Affairs at 12 noon. Also, make sure you watch the Courier Journal in the Neighborhood section next Wednesday, I will have an article on yours truely.

My Fellow Readers,

Just a reminder that I will be signing my books Friday April 4, at Borders on 4th Street from 5 to 7 PM. There should be a huge turnout, since 800 history educators will be in town for a conference. As for my Destinations booksigning, the turnout was extremely light, I had only 12 people, but members of Locust Grove came to my signing and we had a good time discussing the history of the Croghan family and the Clarks. After the bookstore closed, I went to dinner with the members of Locust Grove and had a good time. Hope to see you at Borders.

Dear fellow readers,

Just a reminder that I will be at Destinations Bookstore in New Albany, Indiana on March 29, from 5 to 7 PM. I will be discussing Lincoln and the Speeds. From the weather forecast the day should be nice with no rain, so come on out and say Hi.

Dear fellow readers,

I am getting quite a few new bookings and confirmation for other lectures and book signings. The Lincoln Boyhood Home has just confirmed my book signing for June 14 at 2:30 P.M. and The Lexington History Museum has booked me for a lecture on August 21 at 7:30 P.M. Looks like it is going to be a busy year! I got a email back from History Press Inc. They are defintely interested in my new book project, but they want to publish the book proposal in a series of books. We will see.

On Saturday, April 26, Bryan will be participating in a panel discussion on Abraham Lincoln and signing books at a Lincoln Bicentennial event happening at Joseph-Beth Booksellers.

On Thursday, August 21, Bryan will be giving a lecture on “Abraham Lincoln and the Speeds” and signing books at the Lexington History Museum.

See Bryan’s event page for times and location info.

Bryan may have more to say about these events in a later post.

I met some really nice people at the Kentucky Crafted show on Thursday before all the bad weather hit. I met the represenative from the Kentucky Artisan Center in Berea, Blue Licks Battlefield and the Lexington History Museum. They all wanted me for a possible lecture and book signing. I really hope that I can work something out with the Lexington History Museum and the Kentucky Artisan Center, it will give me an excuse to see the new museum at both places.
