Lincoln Douglas Debates Travel Guide - mbgross - 07-09-2019 05:54 PM
On my bucket list are two trips to Illinois. One is to travel the 8th Judicial Circuit and visit the sites of the Lincoln-Douglas Debates. I found Guy Fracker's travel guide for the 8th Judicial and was wondering if there was a similar travel guide for the Lincoln Douglas Debates? Thanks.

Lincoln's Ladder to the Presidency; The Eight Judicial Circuit by Guy Fraker is an expanded version of his
Looking For Lincoln - A Guide To Lincoln's Eighth Judicial Circuit.
You might want to join us for our fall Springfield Tour in Sept or Oct. The fall is my favorite time of year for these trips
We plan on traveling part of the 8th Circuit, and parts outside of the 8th Circuit such as Charleston, Lerna and Mattoon (Coles County) where Lincoln's parents, Dennis Hanks and other family lived. There is also a Lincoln - Douglas Debate Museum here. More info to follow, still working on the details.
