"Trade the Lincoln Memorial for Lincoln's Cottage For a historical experience beyond the usual suspects, drive out to the city limits and tour President Lincoln’s Cottage. Opened to the public a few years back, it was Abe’s retreat. In fact, he drafted the Emancipation Proclamation within these walls. This appeared in the March/April 2015 issue. By Afar Magazine"
