From the Lincoln and New York website:
"This course introduces teachers to the scholarship behind the new Lincoln and New York exhibition at the New-York Historical Society, including the history, legacy, and memory of Abraham Lincoln's career. Beginning with a survey of Lincoln's biography to provide context for further learning, participants will then explore Lincoln's politics through three foci: Lincoln the candidate, Lincoln the president, and Lincoln the martyr. Through document and object analysis, case studies, use of online resources, and new documentary-making software, participants will examine key moments in Lincoln's short life, the effects his actions had on New York, and the effects New York had on his actions. Participants will receive scholarly resources and reproductions of primary source materials."
