Did anyone see "Lincoln" on the History Channel?
Although Discovery is getting more buzz, both of those channels hold many gems that people miss. It took a while, but I finally finished the three-hour show and it was really well done.
I had to take Gore Vidal with a grain of salt, but they incorporated probably a dozen historians who each had written books on different aspects of his life and it was extremely interesting. Lincoln was a complex man with many problems, but provides a good inspiration. If you like non-fiction or history and you get a chance to watch it, don't pass it up.
