i want to say that stephen ambrose did a lot of good things. his role in the world war ii museum is a huge contribution to american public life. i don't want to overstate the importance of this for eisenhower scholars, the question has been raised. host: what was available to you that was not available to any other scholar so far? william: the most material i saw that was new has been recently declassified, especially by the cia. the cia has been unlocking its vaults quite openly on the 1950's. they should never have been closed for this period for so long. you're getting around to releasing a great deal of material. i read thousands and thousands of pages of documents that other scholars have looked at. many of them are not working about a book on eisenhower's presidency. the things i saw that were new were related to the u2 spy plane, they were plated -- related to intelligence gathering around the missiles, what soviet capabilities were, and they related to some of the covert operation planning. that happened very late in the eisenhower year

ambrose's work has been clouded by controversy ever since. william: yes. the eisenhower library reported this in 2010. it was a big surprise. it is regrettable. it does cast a cloud over his work on eisenhower, which is actually excellent. he did a great deal of archival work, which can be verified. i want to stress that so much of his work is based in the printed record. i have looked at those documents and many more that have been declassified. it appears that there are some questions about the interviews. it is a puzzle, because of course he did not need to. he did not need to make up aotations because we have abundant records from eisenhower. it is an issue. i do want to stress that stephen ambrose did a lot of good for eisenhower studies and world war ii studies. his role in the world war ii museum is a huge contribution to american public life. i don't want to overstate the importance of this for eisenhower scholars, the question has been raised. host: what was available to you that was not available to any other scholar so far? william: the most mat

steven ambrose did a great deal good for not just eisenhower studies but world war ii. his role in helping to stand up the world war ii museum is a huge contribution to american public life. i don't want to overstate the importance of this, but for eisenhower scholars the question has been raised. brian: what was available to you that wasn't available to any other scholar so far? mr. hitchcock: well, the most material that i saw that was new has been recently declassified, especially by the c.i.a. the c.i.a. has been unlocking its vaults now, quite openly, on the 1950's. they should never have been closed for this period for so long. but at long last they are getting around to releasing a great deal of material. i read thousands and thousands of pages of documents that other scholars had looked at, many of them weren't working on a whole book about eisenhower's presidency. but the things i saw that were new related to the u-2 spy plane, intelligence gathering around the missile question, what do the soviet -- what soviet capabilities were. and they related in particular

ambrose burnside. he wasted little time drawing up plans for a rather unconventional winter campaign along the rappahannock with -- river. almost predictably, as if to mock the federal war effort, burnside's plan came to grief on december the 13th, 1862. in the costly battle at fredericksburg. ar john, fredericksburg was true baptism by fire. 13,000 union soldiers were added to the casualty role geared a doleful day that saw after bluecoaton division advancing across the .ide-open plains that extended the confederates were parked where they planted artillery batteries. this day, john wrote to fredericksburg, this day has been a most exciting and at -- eventful one. his ears were saluted with the cries of their wounded. a whole lifetime has been crowded into a single day. yet, it was a mere taste of what was to come. the folly of chancellorsville. whererginia across loads -- crossroads where stonewall jackson outflanked a new union army. gettysburg.of on the afternoon of july the second, the 17th maine
