Each author looks to a history that has refused to remain past and uses the tools of the academy to read and re-read familiar stories, objects, symbols, and myths.

While Abraham Lincoln’s stories, more often than not, made people laugh, they almost always had a point to them. The stories were Lincoln’s way of making it easy for people to understand what he was saying. Over the past year, I have taken the time to read hundreds of Lincoln’s stories, sayings, and quotes from his letters, and what really stands out to me, is his deep understanding of people.
