The Cavalcade of America was a show that ran for many years on radio and presented plenty of scenes of American history. There are a number of episodes that deal with Abraham Lincoln, as you might expect. There are also shows that deal with, for instance, the history of Baseball or Davy Crockett. Some of the episodes broadcast during World War II have a “recent events” war theme. A list of many shows and links to the mp3 files is at archive.org.
