Interviewer and former MP Brian Walden explores the concept of the hero in the second of five unscripted, off-the-cuff talks.

Brian Walden contends that the civil-war president did not, as is popularly believed, devote his life to a fight to abolish slavery.

Walden says that Lincoln's claims to be a hero lie instead in his qualities of wisdom, courage, tolerance and compassion.
