Lincoln and the Civil War
The Huntington Library is a premier center for post-doctoral scholarship in the antebellum and Civil War eras. It is also one of the premier repositories of Lincolniana—manuscripts, books, letters, and ephemera by and about our 16th president. In 1914 and 1922, Henry Huntington purchased two of what were known as the “Big Five” collections of Lincolniana. The Huntington continues to build on those collections through gifts and purchases.

A Review Worth Reviewing
This iTunes U series on Lincoln and his role in the civil war is the first of its kind. It is the only series that puts these specific words in order. I love how this series of lectures makes sure to let us all know the things it is trying to let us all know.
