First on the agenda is historic New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, the church President Lincoln attended most frequently during his presidential years. Here we will see the Lincoln pew and other Lincoln-related artifacts. Afterwards, we will drive by and discuss sites pertinent to Lincoln, such as the Patent Office, the old Court House, and the sites of the sudios of Civil War photographers Matthew Brady and Alexander Gardner. Lunch will be served at GoLo's Chinese Restaurant, which was once Mrs. Surratt's Washington boarding house. Here we will enjoy several different Chinese dishes served family style.
Lunch is included in the price of the tour.
The Library of Congress will be our final stop where we will have the rare privilege of seeing some of our Lincoln treasures which are kept locked in the vault and are brought out only on special occasions. We will return to Surratt House at approximately 5 p.m. There is very little walking involved in this tour. Washington D.C. This tour was offered as a feature of our April symposium and was so popular that we were not able to accommodate everyone who wanted to go, so we decided to offer it again. The tour will fill up quickly so let us hear from you soon.
