Abraham Lincoln: A Hoosier Hero

Weekends: 12-4PM · Weekdays: 5-9PM

 

Hilarity, heartbreak, humanity, and brilliant speeches abound as Abraham Lincoln traces his amazing journey from a log cabin to the White House. Learn about his Indiana youth (age 7-21) where frontier life was precarious, disease a constant companion, and death a hovering presence. He worked side by side with his father, mourned the loss of family members, read the books that opened his mind, and developed a determination of spirit coupled with deep compassion for all people. With only meager schooling, our 16th president became a master of the English language, a lawyer of the highest standing and ability, a nationally known debater and orator, and one of the world's greatest statesmen.
