BRAD BLOG PREMIUM OFFER: ‘LINCOLN: The Presidential Archives’

Share article:

We haven’t had much luck in raising donations, so I’ve been going out of my way to try and find premiums in order to offer some incentives to help encourage folks to support our work here at The BRAD BLOG.

The folks at DK publishing have been kind enough to offer a very limited number of copies of Chuck Wills’ gorgeous new hardback, LINCOLN: THE PRESIDENTIAL ARCHIVES, to us for use as a premium.

This one is really cool. I suspect that folks here may really appreciate this particular item. As the publishers describe it, the book is an “interactive ‘museum-in-a-box’ including removable documents and replicas of Lincoln’s personal correspondence, landmark speeches and more. Accessible text and photography throughout brings Lincoln’s childhood, political ride, presidency, the Civil War era, and untimely assassination to life on the page.”

The brand new book — with literally hundreds of cool pull-outs — has a suggested retail price of $40, so we’re offering it as a premium to folks who make a donation to BRAD BLOG of $100 or more. It’s more pricey than our usual offerings, but we hope there are enough folks out there who may be interested in the topic, and in supporting our work, to jump on this one.

We’ve got just a few of them, but will ship them out ASAP to folks who donate $100 or more online right away. For those who prefer snail mail donations, our address is…

7095 Hollywood Blvd., #594
Los Angeles, CA 90028

…though if these get snatched up right away, we can’t necessarily guarantee they will be available by the time your check gets here. If that’s the case, we’ll let you know before we deposit the check. Please include the word “LINCOLN” on the snail mail check if you chose to go that route. We’ll otherwise update this item as soon as we run out of books to give away.

Thanks for your consideration and support of The BRAD BLOG!

    Here is a rare exception from the Civil War daze

    Winbush, 78, is a retired assistant principal with a master’s degree, a thoughtful man whose world view developed from listening to his grandfather’s stories about serving the South in the “War Between the States.”

    His grandfather’s casket was draped with a Confederate flag. His mother pounded out her Confederate heritage on a typewriter. He wears a rebel flag pinned to the collar of his polo shirt.

    Winbush is also black.

    IN DEFENSE OF HIS CONFEDERATE PRIDE

    Also if you go to the St Pete times site and click on the 10/7 archive, you can see Grandpappy Winbush with his ‘Johnny Reb’ uniform on

    Hey, how about Brad Blog readers vote on their top 25 Enemies of Democracy, to be published at years end? Sounds like fun to me!
    Anyway, I’m just finishing James Madison’s biography and Lincoln sounds good to me. Its amazing to learn how our Founding Fathers really thought when it doesn’t come out of a biased, bigoted, or dumbed down book. I’ve just budgeted my yearly donations to public radio locally here in the Burg to WYEP and WDUQ, and my LinkTV donation to Independent Media on Direct TV, so last but certainly not least Brad, I’m budgeting my donation to you. People better wake up to the fact the free flow of information now costs money, just ask our FCC as they are getting ready to tier the internet and let MSM have even more cross ownership! Thanks to you and all the hard working people in the Election Integrity Community for getting us back to WE THE PEOPLE’S Democratic Republic by helping to ensure that ALL VOTES GET COUNTED ON OFFICIAL PAPER BALLOTS, VOTER REGISTRATION IS SUPPORTED NOT HINDERED, and ELECTION FRAUD VOTING PURGES BE STOPPED BEFORE THEY HELP STEAL MORE ELECTIONS.
    Maybe we could even get our Justice Dept. back before 08, although idiotboy’s nomination sure seems in neocon lock step on the crucial issues:

    You know after gonzo, I want assurances that this AG is going to stand for American Morals, not this administration’s immorality.
    But thanks Brad for all you do. I hope tons of people contribute whatever they can!
