A Man for the A Story of Lincoln and Herndon
The narrator recalls Lincoln's early idealism and growth, Herndon’s blunt wisdom, and Lincoln’s conscience driven speeches including the 1858 and 1860 campaigns. It covers Lincoln’s personal acts of kindness, fear of the Abolition movement, the 1860 Republican convention, and his final journey to Washington and death.
