Jean Fritz

Abraham Lincoln was a busy man. He had to run the country, win the war and look after his family. When he was asked to honor the soldiers who died in the great battle of Gettysburg, President Lincoln made time to say a few words about them too. With sensitivity and wit, Rex Robbins narrates Jean Fritz?s story about one of the most famous (and shortest) speeches in American history, the Gettysburg Address. Directed by Ray Messecar, with stirring music by Bruce Zimmerman.

This is the story of the events preceding, and the actual delivery of, President Lincoln’s famous Gettysburg Address. 

Children will be introduced to the Civil War, the resulting battles, and President Lincoln’s resolve to unify the country. The inclusion of the events surrounding Lincoln’s son Tad’s illness and recovery during this time help to pull young children into the story and make the emotion behind the burden of the presidency more real for them.
