Lincoln-Douglas Debate Podcasts

From site: 

In the podcast series The Real Issue – The Real Debates, Rodney Davis and Douglas Wilson, co-directors of the Lincoln Studies Center at Knox College, discuss each of the historic Lincoln-Douglas Debates. 

Their book, The Lincoln Douglas Debates: The Lincoln Studies Center Edition, is the first critical edition of the debate texts ever published. Drawing on their expertise and decades of research on Lincoln and Illinois history, they examine all the existing texts and bring us as close as possible to what Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas actually said in the most important series of debates in American history.

The Lincoln-Douglas Debate podcasts are each less than ten minutes in length. The music is an arrangement of Hunters’ Chorus, from The Rose of Erin by Julius Benedict, from a 1974 Library of Congress recording, Band Music of the Civil War Era.
