Hi Everyone -
Please join us for the next in our regular monthly series of free
Department of the Interior Library Park Ranger Speaker Series lectures,
entitled "The Lincoln Cottage," on Tuesday, June 15th from 1:00 - 1:45 pm
in the Department of the Interior Library.
President Lincoln’s Cottage served as Abraham Lincoln’s family residence
for a quarter of his presidency and is perhaps the most significant
historic site directly associated with his presidency aside from the White
House. The Cottage is located on the grounds of the Soldier’s Home in
northwest Washington and has recently been restored by the National Trust
for Historic Preservation. It is now open to the public for the first time,
giving Americans an intimate, never-before-seen view of Abraham Lincoln’s
presidency and family life.
Please join Lincoln Cottage Curator Callie Hawkins for a journey back in
time to the days of the Lincoln presidency and the cottage that he and his
family called home during the trying times of the Civil War.
All that are interested are invited. The DOI Library is located in the
Main Interior Building, located at 1849 C Street, NW, Room 1151 in
Washington. Space is limited so please contact the Library by phone at
(202) 208-5815 or by e-mail at [log in to unmask] to let us know you will be
coming. For more information about future DOI Library Park Ranger
Speaker Series programs, we encourage you to visit our Park Ranger Speaker
Series website at http://library.doi.gov/programs/speaker/index.html .
We hope to see you here on June 15th!
