No President faced a more severe Constitutional crisis—or tested the  limits of the Constitution more daringly—than Abraham Lincoln.
Join us Thursday, January 26, at 7 p.m. at the National Archives
Authors  and historians Mark E. Neely, Jr., Brian McGinty, and Frank J. Williams—with Lincoln scholar Harold Holzer as moderator—probe issues that still resonate in America: the limits of  executive authority, the meaning of the law of war, and the legacy of  America’s 16th President. A book signing will follow the program.
