you're on. >> caller: the home of frederick douglas.yes, i have a book called the dred scott case by don farn balker, won the pulitzer prize in 1979. is that book still relevant or are there more up to date books you would recommend? thank you. >> just today i tweeted out that i was rereading farn balker this afternoon and it continues to be, i think, a masterful treatment of the dred scott case. now, there are questions that it alieds and among those are these much more human dimensions of the case, the story of the scott family was not one that farn balker really told in any particular detail. we know a great deal more about that today. but i would say still for me farn balker is a book we go back to. >> it's an excellent text. it captures the politics masterfully. the other thing is farn balker continues to write elsewhere. we have an essay written by him more recentfully a book that marked the dred scott decision and that one is available as well. i would say look at that book but also look for anything else the man has written. he
