Why Lincoln Matters: To Presidents, to History, and to Us
Presented with the Dartmouth History Department. Lincoln’s memory has been used, boldly updated, and occasionally abused. Preeminent Lincoln historian Harold Holzer considers how we see, appreciate, adopt, and interpret Lincoln—and why he still very much matters.
Location: Filene Auditorium, Moore Hall, Dartmouth. A Vermont Reads 2012 event.
