An Evening with Jonathan Putnam

Jonathan F. Putnam is a writer and attorney. A graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Law School, he is a nationally renowned trial lawyer and recognized Lincoln scholar. Jonathan has given talks about Lincoln for civic groups, bookstores, libraries and lawyer groups all across the country. He has frequently been featured on TV and in print.  He was chosen to narrate two episodes on the young Lincoln for the popular “10 American Presidents” podcast series. 

His books in the Lincoln and Speed Mystery series include Final Resting Place (2018), Perish from the Earth (2017) and These Honored Dead (2016). He will be here with us this evening to discuss the fourth book in the series, A House Divided, which retells the story of the greatest unsolved murder mystery from Abraham Lincoln's real-life law practice. The books have been optioned for the screen, and Variety magazine has reported that a major TV series is in the works.

Jonathan's novels will be available to purchase from Riverstone Books at the event.
