Explore the life and times of our sixteenth president, the woodcutter turned ardent abolitionist who struggled against the backdrop of the Civil War to “save the Union.” With a collection of fascinating clips from films such as “Young Mr. Lincoln” and “Birth of a Nation,” which re-creates his assassination, to Bob Newhart’s razor sharp sketch, “Inventing Abraham Lincoln,” this presidential presentation paints a compelling portrait of the man, the politician, and the brilliant mind behind them both.
