A review of "The History Channel: In Search Of History: Lincoln: The Untold Stories"

The History Channel: In Search Of History: Lincoln: The Untold Stories (1998)

From Amazon-

“When Lincoln died, his former law partner William Herndon talked to over 250 friends for a now forgotten biography. Using his original papers, Douglas Wilson and Rodney Davis published Herndon's Informants 130 years later. Drawing on this rich new source, we paint an intimate portrait of Lincoln drawn from fact not myth.”

My two Lincolns:

Historian interviews, period photos, and the-should’ve-not-been-done “peer interview” reenactments = a very basic overview than an in-depth portrait. Unless it’s free and you’re bored, skip it.
