The Address plot

On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of President Lincoln's "Gettsyburg Address", Ken Burns attends a small school in Putney Vermont, called the Greenwood School. At this school, Abraham Lincoln's well-known speech, which he delivered after one of the greatest battles of the American Civil War, is commemorated and recited every year so that it will never be forgotten. Burns examines this custom of the school, delving into the context and importance of Lincoln's powerful speech.
