In the years following his tragic death, Abraham Lincoln became one of the most popular and beloved presidents in American history. Despite his fame and familiarity, however, many crucial aspects of his life remain shrouded in mystery.
IN SEARCH OF HISTORY takes a fresh look at Lincoln’s shadowy past, primarily through the recently unearthed 1865 transcripts of William Herndon. Determined to write his biography after Lincoln was assassinated, Herndon spent more than 30 years documenting the personal memories of over 250 of Lincoln’s closest friends and family. Finally providing a reliable account of Lincoln’s formative years, Herndon’s interviews paint an intimate portrait of the famed president, revealing Lincoln as a down-to-earth, fallible, and often troubled man.
In-depth and riveting, the feature-length LINCOLN: THE UNTOLD STORIES offers a penetrating glimpse into the “lost years” of one of America’s greatest leaders.
