Lincoln Prize accidentally awarded to Lincoln scholar

A correspondent pointed out the oddity of a 2008 book receiving the 2010 Lincoln Prize.

That time lag interests me less than Michael Burlingame winning this prize for the first time after 19 years of awards, many of them multiple (or split) awards.

Consider Burlingame's output, then take a look at their prizewinner list and tell me this game is on the level.
