It's my understanding Abraham Lincoln was a devotee of Burns's poetry. I think there is a book on that subject, but I don't have it.
I do have a book on Lincoln and Whitman, though.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

I highly recommend it! Sadly, Prof. Szasz passed away earlier this year. He was also the author of Scots in the North American West, 1790-1917 from University of Oklahoma Press.
