Yeah yeah - why a Thanksgiving Episode in April? Is this worse than Christmas in July?
No, really, it makes sense. Especially becasue during the Civil War, when everything was an Agrairain Society, Thanksgiving planning was on the mind in April (well prboobly earlier)
But follow along as to why Thanksgivng really came to National Attention during the Civil War either as something to get behind - or something to hate.
And - look you have to start raising your Turkey in the Spring if you want one in Novenber (April is actually probobly too late - maybe?)
Anyway - Here's the Link to Lincoln's Address. Johnson had to submit it b/c well, you know...
