New this season from the University of Nebraska Press is, Sister Brother: Gertrude and Leo Stein by Brenda Wineapple.  This book chronicling the “devoted, eccentric, and compelling” brother and sister follows them from childhood to adulthood and the events leading to their separation. To celebrate the beloved relationship, this weeks Linking in Lincoln is going to Link all things Sibling!

As always, we must first define what we are investigating. Check out Wikipedia to see what constitutes a sibling.
