Understanding the life and legacy of Abraham Lincoln is often considered central to understanding American history : this anthology guides elementary, middle, and high school teachers in preparing lessons that help students understand Lincoln's significance in American history. This book is a unique combination of thought-provoking essays by historians exploring various aspects of Lincoln's presidency and valuable pedagogical essays by teachers offering teaching tips and lesson plans on how they have taught Lincoln.
More than just a resource for teaching Lincoln, the book also helps teachers use his life to explore the fundamental themes of American nationalism and identity, leadership and power, emancipation and race, and the conflicting meanings of freedom.
