I'm watching an awesome National Geographic special on Illinois' own. I'm not really learning anything new here -- I've been reading about Honest Abe my whole life -- but it's a very sophisticated dramatization that makes wonderful use of Lincoln's actual quotes. The man's eloquence and character humble me.
It's being offered via Comcast's ON DEMAND, and National Geographic is re-airing it on Sunday, March 13.
Thanks for the heads up about this re-airing. This would be great to use with my students!
