Status Updates From Contested Will: Who Wrote S...

Chapter about Miss Bacon, the gifted Puritan with theatrical/literary interests and a descendant of Isaac, most engaging. A break from the intensive and somewhat repetitive commentary re scholars' search for clues through documents, many apparently forged. The tale of the search has been intriguing, but got a little tedious. When Miss Bacon took the stage, I became more awake. Maybe because she's a woman!

I'm a little slow, not because the book isn't good--it's fantastic! Just a few issues conflicting with reading time. I took a sneak preview into a latter part of the book, where Mark Twain meets Helen Keller and Ann Sullivan. Twain was one of the popular disputers involved in the authorship controversy. The book reads not only like really interesting history, but like a detective story. Sheer wizardry!
