This collection combines resources from Ford's Theatre, and other scholarly sources, to assist in student research for National History Day 2019. Including documents, objects, artwork, and video, these resources show President Abraham Lincoln’s triumphs and the tragic end of his life by assassination. In particular, this collection contains primary sources about reactions to Lincoln’s assassination, which give us insight into the mood of the still-divided country as the Civil War wound down.
