Professor Bruce Zellers
Abraham Lincoln is widely considered by historians and the public to be the greatest U.S. president. He is praised for navigating the Civil War, preserving the Union, and ending slavery, often ranking first in surveys alongside George Washington. However, some critics argue his legacy is romanticized, and others criticize his policies toward Native Americans or his suspension of civil liberties during the war. Join popular lecturer Bruce Zellers as he explores and explains this beloved president and separates history from mythology. This program is generously sponsored by American House Stone.
