    Seems like a good skill to have in the back pocket even today.

        Had not heard of him. Turns out to be a worthy research hole to fall into for others wondering.

          I’d also recommend a recentish book about him and Lincoln called The Zealot and the Emancipator in case anyone wants some light reading. The politics around Bleeding Kansas feels relevant to the US today.
