and lee is startled awake by the chants of lee, lee, lee. lee's daughter would later write that they were laying in the sleeping car and when the chants, the lee chants started, it woke both of them up. one was on the top tier. i guess she was on the top and he was on the bottom tier, the bunks right there. neither one of them said a word as those chants were going on. by sunrise at places where the train didn't even stop, people stood by the railway dignified looking men, a lot of them lee's veterans, would suddenly stop and thrust their caps into the air and give a big rebel yell. on to salisbury where the crowds cheered as the band thundered out confederate battle tunes which is the last thing that lee wanted to hear, on to charlotte where a bigger crowd awaited. lee had refused to emerge from the train so far, and he was horrified by all the attention. the columbia, south carolina, a holiday had been declared and stores were closed. there was a parade to the station in the pouring rain. columbia was only a 15-minute stop but when lee loo

lee. he highlighted lee's efforts to promote reconciliation after the war, and his time as president at washington college. his talk was hosted by the national park service in 2015. >> what we're going to do today, ladies and gentlemen, is we are going to do robert e. lee and the post-war years. and my coworker, chuck teague, when we were upstairs before we came down asked me if this was going to be a beautification -- did i get that right -- out here. which, i guess it never hit me, but i guess it might, in a way, because i am a big fan of robert e. lee. what i'm hoping to do among others, besides give you a timeline as to what robert e. lee did in the post-war years, chin is one of the most often overlooked portion of his life. the civil war is always going to be first and foremost. the other main theme of this lecture i'm going to try to get across to you -- the park service is big on themes -- is that the amount of -- i wouldn't say that he did a lot of work in theory. but through his

and they had a discussion about the options available to lee and what lee might do. that might have come up. i'm not sure because of the different versions of what was said and what was nod said. i had to smile when you were asking that. and bobby did that so realistically i can't imagine him stopping and saying but if you got a desk job. now i've had the pleasure of meeting many actors but i've never met one more intense than robert duval. i'll tell you the thing about him that's so implicit. when he asks you a question you have 100% of his attention when you ask it. he's stabbing lights through your eyes, making a difference. he listens to you. and i wanted to ask him when he was being made up how do you do it? you've gone all the way from playing a deaf-mute to in to kill a mockingbird and all these movies. and he said i'm schizophrenic. and i think there may be probably a bit of truth to that. but on the set of "gods and generals" it was wonderful to work with real professional actors. steven lang deserved the academy award for playing jackson. but duval played h

lee. you have to prevent grant wasn't great and that makes lee look better. porter alexander didn't do that. he was talking about grant's movements that brought him to petersburg the second week of june 1864. the movement that involved crossing the james with the incredible pontoon bridge. he describes it as this, grant devised a piece of strategy on his own which is to me the most brilliant stroke of the whole war. it was by somewhat round about roads but entirely out of our observations to precipitate his whole army upon petersburg which was held by scarcely 6,000 men. not only was this strategy bill -- brilliant in conception for which all the credit i believe belongs to general granted but the orders and details of a rapid movement with so mighty an army with its terrains and artillery across two rivers on its own pontoon bridges make it also the most brilliant pieces of the entire war. there's very little of that honest admiration for anything that grant did by former confederates. he

to be sure, lee had surrendered too, but lee had been surrounded. he fought as long as he could and as hard as he could, and then he accepted the inevitable. johnston in davis' view had just quit. to davis, johnston's surrender at durham station was simply another manifestation of a defeatest and contrarian general who had from the first, been a reluctant warrior, but whatever may be said of his retrograde movements since 1862 or the trading space for time in 1864, his decision to lay down his arms in 1865 was the reasonable act to someone who knew the time had come for the killing to stop. thank you very much. >> do you have time for questions? >> i'm told we have time for questions. >> there's a couple down here. microphones are on their way. whoever gets the microphone first. that's the rule. okay. right here. yes, sir. >> craig, at bennett's place, did not joseph johnston propose a set of firms to sherman before sherman pulled out his alternatives, and did not sherman kind of look at them and say, oh, these aren't too bad? and it was johnston's

lee. this is porter alexander talking about lee at gettysburg. this is from fighting for the confederacy. on the first day we had taken the aggressive. although a casual reading of general lee's report suggests that the aggressive on the second day seemed forced upon him, yet the statement is very much qualified by the expression, quote, in a measure, and also by the reference to the hopes inspired by our partial success earlier. i think it must be frankly admitted that there was no real difficulty whatever in our taking the defensive the next day in our so maneuvering afterward as to have finally forced mead to attack us. i think it reasonable to estimate that 60% of our chances for a great victory were lost by our continuing the aggressive. now, this is written at a time when most former confederates are explaining gettysburg as its james longstreet's fault, before that it was richard ewell's false, everybody's fault but r.e. lee's fault and here we have porter alexander saying, no, look

but always remember, he is a lee. for a lee in virginia whose roots go down about 250 years into history, when lee said i cannot hold my sword against my family, the state, by birthright, he is talking about virginia. >> doctor robertson, i would like to ask a what if question. i don't know that i've ever heard anyone refer to this and i've always wondered. give us your best answer of what you really think would have happened if lee would have got away from grant at appomattox and it went south, where would it have gone from then and where would appomattox have been? >> i cannot answer that. i just don't get that involved in what ifs. i got that when the jackson book came out. everyone wanted to know what would it have been like if jackson had been at gettysburg. i will tell you why you can't answer those questions, because you are putting jackson down in july 1862. you can't. you have to go way back to lees invasion of the north and jackson is in command and his troops are marching 25 miles a day, rather than the cus

welcome, senator lee. on a personal note here, he got his taste for things constitutional from his father, former solicitor general rex lee, the chief lawyer for the united states government under the early years of president reagan. i had the honor to be solicitor general lee's assistant. i am -- was very close to senator lee's father and still regard him as one of the great american lawyers of all time. welcome to his son and my friend, michael e. -- lee. sen. lee: it is a pleasure to be with you. you are one of my favorite judges to argue in front of on the u.s. court of appeals for the 10th circuit. you are someone who's opinions i value greatly and always look to and admire. i'm a big fan of your book, "the president would not be king." it's a book i am loving at something every american needs to read. michael: that makes me feel very proud. that leads to our conversation today. there are many different things we could be talking about. we decided we will be talking about the presidency at this partic

lee's army in virginia. johnson, of course, emphasized the smaller number, the number of effectives 42,000. of course using either number, the odds were about two to one between sherman and johnson. of course as davis noted the confederacy faced long odds everywhere, lee also faced long odds, so johnson's inferiority to sherman was not significantly greater than lee's to grant. johnston certainly knew what davis expected of him in this campaign from his base at dalton in northern georgia he was supposed to advance northward to recover chattanooga, lost the previous fall, and then move into central tennessee. well, johnston was certainly willing to try, but insisted he simply didn't have the assets to do it. in particular he complained that he was short of cavalry. now, according to popular culture, the cavalry is supposed to be a confederate strength, and that was probably true in 1862, and it may still have been mostly true in virginia as late as 1864, but it was not true in the western theater and certainl

lee's army of northern virginia when lee died in 1870. incredibly as early as winter 1866 jubal earned accolades from many southern and northern newspapers for his proficiency as a general and as a military historian. by 1869 former confederate general d.h. hill proclaimed early, quote, near to the hearts of the southern people than any other man. the story of how early orchestrated his come back from failure in the shennen dougha provides new insight as to why confederates lost the war but won the battle for historic interpretation. several of the most entrenched arguments of the civil war often termed the lost cause arose directly from special pleading in the four years he roamed from self-imposed exile from 1865 to 1869. every time a breathless student of the civil war utters the phrase, the confederacy was defeated solely because of inferior man power and material, early his ghost threads another plume into his grave. when one uncritically extols lee or the faithful confederate ladies of the shenandoah valley more feathers. i propose

lee. longstreet stayed close to certain of his staff officers , he attended ruins of his beloved first corps, cherished expressions of support from former troops, threw himself into writing articles on the war for journals and into writing a 690-page memoir which was published in 1896. and in all of these activities, longstreet presented himself as someone who's republican party affiliation should, in no way, supplant his standing as a proud confederate. but longstreet was his own worst enemy when defending his military reputation. he lashed out in blunt fury. he betrayed lee's reputation. while some former confederates, particularly men who served closely with him, were willing, to compartmentalize his life, to praise and honor his wartime record, most confederates were not willing to separate the two. there was no room for a republican scallywag or a critic of lee. in my mind, the image of longstreet as inept and misunderstood doesn't fully capture his political views or abilities. it re

lee. ms. jackson lee: go right ahead, ms. lee. you're recognized. mrs. lee: thank you, mr. chair. i'm here tonight as a daughter of alabama, as the congresswoman representing georgia's fifth congressional district and the seat that was held by congressman john lewis for over 30 years. congressman john lewis already laid the blueprint for us. we are here as the congressional black caucus honoring him 56 years after bloody sunday. we have an obligation to get in good trouble and continue congressman lewis' legacy. as congressman lewis told us when we see something that is not right, when we see something that is not fair, when we see something that is not just, you have an obligation to speak up, to stand up, to find a way to get in the way. and as we continue the work for the people on this floor, we will do that in the legacy of john robert lewis. that's our power, that is our message. thank you so much. ms. jackson lee: i thank the gentleman. i thank the gentleman from kentucky. mr. comer: mr. speaker, in the weeks since president biden took office, we've seen a dramatic reversal

lee? >> -- mr. lee. >> reporter: mr. billy lee. >> why did you choose to focus on mr. lee?s just too many discrepancies. >> reporter: remember, billy was cleared, had a solid alibi. but now the defense was using sanchez to raise doubt about who the real killer was. >> there's a lot of smoke here but no fire. >> mudles it up. >> and that, i believe, was the defense strategy, that if you have enough of that, then the jury won't see through it. >> reporter: the jury retired to consider. >> oh, i was so nervous, i just paced up and down the halls, in and out. >> reporter: four hours later, they were called back into court. >> has the jury reached a verdict? >> we have, your honor. >> the defendant shall please rise. we find the defendant, bradley farrington, guilty of first-degree murder. >> reporter: when they announced their verdict? >> there was a lot of tears, a lot of sighs of relief. one of the deputy attorneys says, thank you for not giving up, thank you for pushing. and i said, how could i? it was my little girl. >> reporter: brad farrington was sentenced to life. no pa

lee was provoked. was sufficient to justify a lesser included. not justify the killing because it wasn't justified, but was it murder? was it deliberate, willful, premeditated, lying-in-wait murder? or was it a tragic killing that shouldn't have happened? >> the jurors pondered those questions for just an hour and a half. then they reached a verdict. >> we, the jury, find the defendant christopher brandon lee guilty of first-degree murder. the defendant intentionally killed the victim by means of lying in wait. >> reporter: christopher lee was convicted on all counts. he will spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole. >> what was that moment like for you? that, that was pretty final, at that point. guilty. >> it was like taking a breath of fresh air. >> reporter: although jon corwin still feels the lasting pain of regret. >> i just wish, wish i could have been there for her more. i tried my hardest, but it wasn't enough. >> erin was a kid. she had her whole life ahead of he

he had been a war horse as lee had put it. after this he had settled in new orleans, where he successfully will continue his success as a cotton broker. longstreet was widely, admired and well liked by his fellow confederates. what a difference, a few months made. by june of 1867, longstreet's reputation was in tatters. he had become a pariah among former confederates. in new orleans and across the south. reviled as a traitor to his party, his country and his race. what happened, the answer is clear, that longstreet published a series of letters, in march april and june of april 1867, expressing his thought of reconstruction, and the republican party. the party of lincoln. the and these letters exploded like a bomb in american politics. they change the course of his life forever. today i'm going to familiarize you with the content of these letters. and i will survey the public reaction to them. somewhat surprising you will see, and then i will come back to on-street the man and try to set some light on his motivations. modern

commissioner lee. >> vice-chair lee: thank you, chair ambrose.nk that the year has been a very challenging one for both our country and the city. we were hit by a couple of viruses, covid pandemic, and also in the city the outbreak of the corruption virus. the commission has gone through a very challenging year in various ways. and i really appreciate chair ambrose's leadership in guiding us through some really unusual times. and i would nominate her to a second term, because we need steady leadership and continuity to bring us to a new chapter. to really rebuild the public's trust. and also to enforce the ethic commission's relevance in our work and tackling the -- the challenges that we're facing as a commission and in the city. so it is with honor for me to nominate chair ambrose to be our next chair for the commission. >> chair ambrose: thank you. commissioner bush. you are muted, unfortunately. >> commissioner bush: i second the nomination of chair ambrose. >> chair ambrose: thank you very much. are there any other nominations? seeing none,

bonnie portrays mary custer's lee. here at the gettysburg national military park they're both deeply committed to accuracy quote. we refuse we refuse to walk around here and be inaccurate historically. because we're doing the tourist here and injustice and we're doing our cells in a justice as well because if we want to get into that persona into the character then and think like them then we must look like them as well. and generally according to frank were particular shade of war called cadet gray a color closer than blue to blue than confederate gray. he spent five months searching for the right seamstress who help him order the wool fabric from the same factory in richmond, virginia that may general lee's original uniform during the civil war. the fabric had to be custom made it took six months, but frank believes that quote. it was well worth the wait. so now when i walk when i do impressions of lee, i know what i'm wearing is historically accurate. i also have a belt presentation belt that is accurate. is an exac

lee leads a massive charge across an open field. pickets charge. the union artillery raining down on the confederate side. so it was really a slaughterhouse. >> three days of fighting, three days of horrific casualties in what becomes the largest battle ever fought in the western hemisphere. >> you could not walk from one end of the battlefield to the other without stepping on corpses. >> 50,000 casualties. at the end, lee has to admit defeat. >> the union held the day. it was momentous. it was decisive. but what it wasn't is war-ending. >> when lincoln signs the emancipation proclamation, he frees slaves in confederate territory and invites them to join the union army. but despite the influx of black soldiers, cities continue to burn, men continue to die, and the war continues to rage on. by the end of 1863, there are more than 600,000 american casualties on both sides. >> this was the destruction of people on a larger scale, in greater numbers than in any other war in american culture. there was nothing that had compared to this. and soldiers tol
