Celebrating the Lincoln-Douglas Legacy


In 1858 two men, both on closest terms with Quincy, returned to this bustling river community to debate the single issue that had “soiled the Republican robe” of a democratic
nation since its beginning. Slavery.
Their Quincy stories are told in museums and storyboards, in talks by local historians and in resources available to all.
