since we them frederick cody frederick cody died a century and a half ago, scholars have tried to come to term with his meeting, or is -- his meaning, or his meanings. more thano bill, anybody, symbolized that story, the winning of the west. as he embodied in his wild west show, he simplified a narrative of american history, the myth of the west, as we call it. and it was a myth that helped to unify divided nation after the helped that itit celebrated individual, heroic values, and particularly celebrated this myth of collective national accomplishment. it was inclusive, it was progressive, and it fit very nicely with the idea of progress. nother driving myth, particularly for americans, but for most of western civilization. that myth itself, and the narrative, and certainly the winning of the west part of the narrative, became, over the years, as ambivalent as the various understandings of buffalo bill himself. of buffaloerstanding bill, by scholars, particularly, with our national perception of the role of the west in american history. bill's reputation in the academy came with the p

all of these were created by a sculptor named frederick wellington. from new york. who represented sfis kaised european training. the same level of competence and ambition that has been represented in the origin nam construction of the state house itself. it's interesting that one of the more recent monuments created was the monument to the african american experience. which takes us right back, doesn't it? . to the pedimental sculpture that was destroyed and not built. the african american monument here we might say is the equivalent of the new martin loouter king man yumt on the mall in washington. in both cases, a sculptural representation of significant experience of the american citizens. monuments because they are serious, often elicit controversy. on our grounds perhaps the monument to the confederate soldier and the confederate flag behind it represent controversy. deeply felt historical experience. and there are group of people who who cherish what they represent. and there are others who feel it's something dark that should be suppressed. my own feeling is

they will skirmish heavily in the fields outside of frederick. that fighting has one participant then came to tug of war. and then because as the second of that attack is around the thomas farm now you finally have confederate infantry crossing. the louisiana tigers, these three brigades total around 3,300 men. they get ready to attack. at 3:30 they attack and hit them head on. this attack here that i like to describe is a stand up knock down fight. you the veterans duking it out and they are trading shot 1-1. by 1864 the name of the game is stop, dig a rifle pit and dig in. there is no time he says the bullets fell like hailstones. the boys fell all around me. it will devastate these soldiers. his own brother is wounded in front of the georgetown pike. they fall back towards what is called the georgetown pike. after years of travel has sunken down. they dig in. this is their final position. again gordon's men attack and trade shots back and forth. the new jersey infantry looses 40% and looses four color barrie barriers. the flag goes down. the f
