On the Lincoln Log podcast I speak with leading historians and other officials about their stories, research, and wisdom. Expand your knowledge and indulge your curiosity here on Lincoln Log.

Lincoln’s Compass, my debut book, tells the story of Abraham Lincoln through the text that guided him more than any other: the Declaration of Independence. In this presentation at Methodist Temple, I explore how Lincoln treated the Declaration as a living compass, one that pointed the nation toward human equality, democratic consent, and respect for the rule of law.

I took part as a featured expert in LINCOLN: DIVIDED WE STAND, a six-part CNN original series about Abraham Lincoln. Through a mix of expert interviews, cinematic recreations, rare artifacts, and never before broadcast photos and letters, LINCOLN: DIVIDED WE STAND takes viewers on a transcendent journey into the life and times of this iconic U.S. president.

A panel discussion on Ford's Theatre stage with Jane Kamensky, President & CEO of Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello and Trumbull Professor of American History emerita, Harvard University, in a conversation moderated by Judy Woodruff, the former host of the PBS NewsHour and now the host of a program on America at a Crossroads. This event was part of a symposium organized by the Lincoln Institute.
