Jennifer Weber, author of Copperheads: The Rise and Fall of Lincoln’s Opponents in the North, and Professor in the Department of History, University of Kansas, sent us this picture. This kitten has brightened my week and I hope he brightens your Friday!

Hah, just what I need, another possible post for my blog

I think you’ll find it just the thing for a certain intellectual mood, since it is about books AND cats.

((those are hyphens, though I typed periods, as in http://www.cat-lovers-almanac.blogspot.com))) let me justify a second note by pointing out Dr. Weber has picked a copper colored kitten to sit on her book about copperheads, pretty subtle. Thanks, Marsha Brown
