Just finished the Burnham book this morning after hearing an interview with her on a NPR show a couple weeks ago. Great Read: I highly recommend. Excellent companion piece to "At the Hands of Persons Unknown: The Lynching of Black America" by Philip Dray.

Thanks for your other recommendations.

Always an interesting collection. The Lydia Maria Child book looks interesting. I've read a lot of books that refer to her (including Mary Chesnut's diary) but say little about her.

Otis is gorgeous. he looks like a lot of dog - on your walks, who is walking whom?

I highly recommend the LMC biography. The author is a philosopher, which really enriches the narrative given the kinds of questions posed.

Otis is definitely living his best life. :-)
