Really articulate and lively, I will look forward to more of Mr. Widmer's material. One correction: the Feb 1860 Cooper Union speech was much longer than "15 or 20 minutes", probably more like an hour +. It's a complex read, especially the first part, but absolutely masterful. You can find a TH-cam of Sam Waterston "acting" it some years ago, in the same space (the Great Hall).
God, this channel is GOLD!!!!!. I cannot believe how fantastic each of these historical shows are just phenominal.
THANKS 🎉❤

Succinctly and beautifully articulated presentation on Lincoln’s genius, humanity, and courage. No notes and slides!
Well done, sir.
"In your face abolitionists." :-) Does he mean people like Richard Allen and William Still?
Refreshing and clear. Thank you.
I like honest Abe
