for students who are studying the American Civil War...
Many schools have included "Meet Mr. Lincoln" as part of their standard curriculum for American History each year and more specifically during the study of the American Civil War. Through his program, Mr. Boggs is able to present to these students a more detailed look into the life of Abraham Lincoln, as well as emphasize a deeper focus of his presidency as he led the nation through the American CivilWar. By seeing and experiencing this powerful program, students will have a greater appreciation and a much better understanding of this phase of American History. Students are then very eager to ask questions to President Lincoln, as they are given the opportunity through his 'Question & Answer Session' which immediately follows the presentation.
President Lincoln reads a copy of the New York Times, dated March 6, 1861, the day after is first Presidential Inauguration
