2020 Lincoln at the Library
Join us for a free virtual presentation of Lincoln at the Library at 2:00 pm EDT on October 25th.
Leading up to the 2020 election, the political atmosphere is incredibly divisive. Elections in the past weren’t the same…or were they? Dr. Nicole Etcheson is the Alexander M. Bracken professor of history at Ball State University who will be looking at elections during Lincoln’s time as well as some correlation to today’s political environment. She is author of A Generation at War: The Civil War Era in a Northern Community (2011) as well as numerous other books and articles. She was most recently the DFH Distinguished Visiting Professor at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado.
The presentation will be presented via Zoom, on October 25, 2020 at 2 pm EDT. Please register in advance for this presentation.
