REVIEW BY ROBERT BARTEL, DOCUMENTARY PRODUCER & HISTORIAN:
GEORGE HARRISON; A BEATLE IN BENTON,IL
MAY 2008 REVIEW:
"SOUL JOURNEY FROM LINCOLN TO LINDBERGH"
By Richard Salva
Living in Springfield, Illinois since 1961— having moved here from Chicago with my parents when I was eleven years old—I have been around Lincoln folklore almost all of my life. I have visited all of the Lincoln sites, as well as the Charles Lindbergh landing sites (the old Southwest Airport being the site that I have seen and collected information on regarding Lucky Lindy and his mail delivery from all points in Illinois to St Louis, Missouri). I have been given in recent days a copy of what I would consider a very in-depth study of two of America's best and well-known figures in history.
Soul Journey from Lincoln to Lindbergh is a fact-finding study undertaken by Richard Salva. This books stands on solid ground in its mission to discover the connections between Abraham Lincoln and Charles Lindbergh. I have been to both the known and not-so-known sites of both these men, being a historian myself on the subject of George Harrison’s first American visit to Benton, Illinois. I know the work it takes, to put together the research to get the facts out to the general public, who review such findings to better understand history’s little known or known facts. It all should work for a common purpose, to make clear the story to those who study such men of renown as Lincoln and Lindbergh. Being a Licensed Private Detective, I appreciated the plain, clear language Richard Salva used to show the connections between these two American giants in history. I enjoyed the great read this book brings on the subject of these two men, and Mr. Salva has earned my respect in his findings regarding the connections he has uncovered. I suggest that anyone who cares to know more about these two figures, Lincoln and Lindbergh, read Soul Journey. My hat’s off to Richard Salva, whose book would make a great movie as well.
