Abe Lincoln Alive - John D. Voehl
Knowledge will be gained about the life and times of Abraham Lincoln; a deeper understanding of what he stood for, an appreciation for things that he accomplished for all Minnesotans; a better understanding of history and how we, as Americans, have arrived at our current point in culture and history.
The presenter provided exact and detailed knowledge about the life and times of Lincoln. No audience member left not having learned something about the president and what he stood for. Several people have requested further information from the library about Lincoln and patrons are requesting more reenactment programs in the future. Anecdotal responses were gathered.
