In episode 4, Shelia Mullican and Eric Jacobson take a hard look at how Abraham Lincoln has been judged in history - as savior, liberator, … or tyrant. They examine criticisms of his wartime policies, question myths and memories around his legacy, and reflect on how public memory shapes our understanding of the Civil War.
