Special Tour Mr. Lincoln at Harpers Ferry and Antietam
Bus Tour
During one of his most important trips out of Washington during the war, President Lincoln traveled to Harpers Ferry and Antietam to visit the Army of the Potomac during the first week of October 1862. Many of the sights of Lincoln's time remain at both Antietam and Harpers Ferry. You can see them and learn about them on this full-day study tour with historian Ed Bearss. Visit sites where Lincoln viewed the troops, assessed the political and military situation, and reflected on what his preliminary emancipation proclamation portended. Lunch is included.
