The Lehrman Institute - Abraham Lincoln's election on November 6, 1860 triggered a series of events that led to the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861. Four years and three days later, the Civil War would be over and Abraham Lincoln would be dead from an assassin’s bullet. This blog chronicles the events of that tumultuous period.
