Lincoln: The Constitution and the Civil War,” a traveling exhibition, examines how President Abraham Lincoln used the Constitution to confront three intertwined crises of the Civil War –the secession of Southern states, slavery, and wartime civil liberties. The exhibit is composed of informative panels featuring photographic reproductions of original documents, including a draft of Lincoln’s first inaugural speech, the Emancipation Proclamation, and the Thirteenth Amendment. The documents are supplemented by letters, photographs, and images from Civil War soldiers and their families.
