MOUNT PULASKI
Guy Fraker, author of
"Guidebook to Lincoln's Eighth Judicial Circuit," will present
pictures from his book on Saturday, Nov. 4 at 1:30 p.m. at the
Historic Mt. Pulaski Courthouse.
The book encourages people to travel the fourteen counties which
were on the circuit in search of historic sites. Maps and directions
are included along with about 90 pictures. Books will be available
for sale. Fraker will be happy to sign them.
Guy S. Fraker is a retired attorney from Bloomington. In his earlier
book, "Lincoln's Ladder to the Presidency: the Eight Judicial
Circuit," Fraker asserts that travel around the circuit helped
Lincoln get elected president.

Many tour groups organized by Fraker have opened the historic treasures of Logan
and the thirteen other counties to visitors from many places.
Everyone is welcome.
