Carl Sandburg's House (The Carl Sandburg National Historic Site)

Introduction

As a writer, Carl Sandburg has long been an idle of mine (though I am not sure how this happened given that he has fallen out of favor with the writing elite and is rarely taught anymore), so whenever I have the opportunity I make a "pilgrimage" to his house. It is exactly as it was when he passed away, and, for me, it is impossible to not feel at peace surrounded by the over 14,000 books that he owned.
