A Visit with Abraham Lincoln ~ A NHHC sponsored Program @ Bow High School
Thursday, May 3, 10:30 a.m.
Abraham Lincoln, portrayed by Steve Wood, begins this program with a recounting of his early life and ends with a reading of the "Gettysburg Address." Along the way he comments on the debates with Stephen Douglas, his run for presidency, and the Civil War. In doing so, he challenges the audience to reexamine their knowledge of Lincoln's views on slavery and abolition.
The Bow Heritage Commission will bring the Civil War home to Bow, NH with their display of artifacts and pictures from 1861 to 1865. Open to the general public. The Bow Memorial School 8th grade class will be attending this presentation as a field trip after exploring the topic of the Civil War in class.
