Inauguration day is here and, with it, the results to last week’s Silly Survey. We asked you which presidential biography best prepares Americans for the next 4 years and you, the faithful BookSwimmers, voted overwhelmingly for Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln. Perhaps you felt it imperative to get inside the mind of another representative of the great state of Illinois, or maybe it had something to do with the Emancipation Proclamation. Your reasons are clearly your own, and I dare not speculate further.

Oh, and while you’re at it, take these next few days to vote in this month’s Top Ten, which asks BookSwimmers which book or books will you read to help accomplish your New Year’s resolution.
