Goodwin makes the case for Lincoln's political genius by examining his relationships with three men he selected for his cabinet, all of whom were opponents for the Republican nomination in 1860: William H. Seward, Salmon P. Chase, and Edward Bates. These men, all accomplished, nationally known, and presidential, originally disdained Lincoln for his backwoods upbringing and lack of experience, and were shocked and humiliated at losing to this relatively obscure Illinois lawyer.

Meet the Artist - Photographer Todd Vogel

Date: 
Sat, 07/07/2012 - 2:00pm to 4:30pm
Age Group: 
Teen

Meet photographer Todd Vogel and view his exhibit Looking Up and about.
The photos in this collection are an eclectic lot, for the most part taken on a trip this past winter. Some are local. They include Texas ducks, timeless petroglyphs, ever changing dunes,, amazing cranes and much more. The photos are mounted on canvas which softens them slightly and makes them less of a picture and more of an image.
Looking Up and about will be ondisplay at the Library throughout the month of July
