The Lincoln Family at Home

We most often think about Abraham and Mary Lincoln as president and first lady, but they were also devoted parents to four children. Join Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum Lincoln Historian Dr. Christian McWhirter for a glimpse into their home life and how they raised their four sons.

Dr. Christian McWhirter is the Lincoln Historian at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library Museum and author of Battle Hymns: The Power and Popularity of Music in the Civil War.  His writings on Lincoln, popular music, and the Civil War have appeared in numerous publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, and Civil War Monitor. His most recent publication is a Washington Post article on the Civil War background of two Christmas songs.
