Episode Details:

Explore the life and legacy of the man widely considered one of our best and most enigmatic presidents, Abraham Lincoln. Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. shines a scholarly light on the Lincoln legend that grew out of greed, love, power struggles, and considerable disagreement over how the 16th president should be remembered. Gates addresses many of the controversies surrounding Lincoln--race, equality, religion, politics, and depression--by carefully interpreting evidence from those who knew him and those who study him today.
