LINCOLN and VERMONT
with Howard Coffin
A Vermont Humanities Council event ~
NEW
Thursday, March
6th at 7:00 pm
Beginning with Lincoln's preliminary
Emancipation Proclamation, and continuing through to the consecration of the
National Soldiers Cemetery at Gettysburg, historian Howard Coffin traces how
Lincoln's leadership of the Federal war effort and his political canniness
shaped the relationship between the president and Vermont, a state Lincoln
admired though never visited. This free event is open to the public, and will be held at the
First Congregational Church, located at 77 Main Street, three doors down
from the library. Hope to see you there
!
