About A House Divided

A House Divided airs Live on the book shop’s Facebook page. People who are not Facebook users can watch there, too. Shortly after the program, you can watch at your convenience on Facebook, YouTube or at this website, under the A House Divided tab on the Previous Shows page.

Viewers who are Facebook users may ask the author a question via the Comments feature under the livestream on our Facebook page.

The broadcast often features an historical artifact related to the book, allowing you to see some of the fascinating items available at the shop. A true virtual visit!

You also may order a signed copy of the featured title: before, during, or after the show-while supplies last. They will be signed on our shop’s special book plates featuring our logo – originally conceived by author and poet Carl Sandburg.

A House Divided began at Abraham Lincoln Book Shop, Inc. in 2005 when Daniel Weinberg created Virtual Book Signing.

Having offered well over 100 titles, the program features live-streamed interviews with leading authors in the subjects of Lincoln, U.S. Civil War, Presidential and Military History. Having specialized in these subjects since 1938, we are well-suited to offer entertaining and well-informed interviews of major authors in those fields.
