smithsonian. this is all in the book and we reopened this tune as they did in 1973. they actually popped this panel off comes pops off and can go in there and so i sort of go back in there again and and use it because i was that's it fascinated me. why did they go into this tomb in 1973? nobody knows really to be honest with you. there was no scientific value into it whatsoever. but they decided to go in to inventory it and they took it apart and brought the coffins out and walked them across to the natural history museum and studied them for a day or so. gotten a lot of trouble too, didn't they that did the district office got wind of it and they contacted our lawyers basically to say that you hadn't gotten a proper explanation permit. so but then that's why we'd have lawyers as they made it lawyers. terrible. i'm a lawyers i can talk about this time. yeah, they did got to sort of they eventually put all the bones back in and an inventory sheet, and it was put back down there, but i couldn't resi

it's also not just the smithsonian. if you're interested in diaries and letters, the library of congress has a great website, the american memory website and the other one if you are interested in the history there is great ones. most historical societies and whatever time you live in that have great exhibitions and resources online not a lot of people go to so i would say look into what we make available at the smithsonian but also look at the historical society or that kind of thing. there's a lot in there if you are interested in this kind of thing. >> did somebody else raise their hand there? >> i don't want to miss anybody. i would think i would be better at thisr by now. i think we got it all. thisis is just a tiny taste of what is in the book. there's so much more here. that is the best step you can take. go to the smithsonian if you are in town when they open back up which i think is going to be next month. >> i think the american history museum will be open and the crowd will be less. it's a good time to go if

this is where the regions of the smithsonian me. lot of people don't understand how the smithsonian is governed. it's governed by a 17 number board of regents. it's headed by the chief justice of the united states who is the chancellor of the institution. the vice president serves on the board as do three members of the house, three memos of the senate, and nine citizen members. this is where they meet. history is a story. it is stories. if you tell history into a story form, people get interested. they like that. they can get invested in it if you tell it in that way. in my novels, that's what i do. i take that thing from history that you know little about, that little nugget. i try to weave a modern-day thriller around that number of history. >> watch the entire smithsonian castle tour sunday on american artifacts at 6:00 p.m. eastern, 3:00 p.m. pacific on american history tv. >> as a guest lecturer at the citadel military college in charleston, south carolina, former defense secretary donald rumsfeld david talkie calls "the bush

he told the smithsonian to contact me.d me, and i told, him i said yeah, i'm the great grandson. i have three sisters who are the great granddaughters. he said no, do you have any documentation? i said, yes, i do. so next day and i don't know, he must have had a private plane or something. so we sat down and we invited my friend who has a camera, he filmed the whole meeting. we presented him, showed him all the documentation's that we had, the birth certificates, the merchandise, the death certificates, you name, it we had it all. and we hadn't created nothing, we just had the paperwork. my wife has been working on creating this family tree so, he took all these documentation's to make sure that there is nobody left out. but we had a ceremony, which is relatives -- and it holds a lot of weight. and he thought, this had something to do with it. it's not really a blood chart, it descended the chart. it's just between two individuals back here who took each other's relatives. but that doesn't mean there are treating their gra

this image is at the smithsonian institution. there's a copy of it at the madison wisconsin historical society. this is smithsonian has this labeled as kit carson question mark i've advised the the curators there that it is jim bridger. maybe that's when they put the question mark on it. so they have that i think in their files there. so i'm going to go out of slideshell. and go back to full screen. we've been talking for 30 minutes already and i feel like i've just touched the surface and because bridger had so many unique characteristics, but i guess that the third point i want to make the first point was that bridge was remarkably active in many many areas of the american west the second point was bridger made a huge impression a big impact when he met people and he was so well known people were exhilarated to meet him and they would often write about it which made my work easier because i could find their journals and their written letters in archives all across the country from the smithsonian to the huntington library and a

and in 1896 he donated these items to the smithsonian.l that came out called the native american r repatriation protection act. so the smithsonian had these leggings and they started first with the guy to see if he had any children or grandchildren. he had no descendants. then they went to the military and the army didn't want to touch it, because he wasn't in the army. now they started looking for descendants. of all things, up in had north dakota. test test test test test test test test test test. my friend has a camera, he filmed the whole meeting. we presented him, showed him all the documentations that we had. the birth certificates, death certificates, we had it all. we hadn't created nothing, we just had the paperwork. my wife has been working on creating this family tree. and so he took all these documentations to make sure that there was nobody left out or -- and then we had a ceremony which is a meeting of relatives. it holds a lot of weight amongst the lakota people. he thought this had something to do with it. it's not really

it is in the collection of the smithsonian art museum. and it is in part because johnson was a major collector of american art, and she gave her collection to the smithsonian, and it formed the basis of the fine arts collection of the smithsonian. but this was the only sculpture, of a woman of a first lady, in the exhibition because sculptures were not generally commissioned of women in the 19th century. we can think about sculpture during this period, as being something that was reserved for allegorical figures, figures of america, columbia, that's where you saw women being represented, but these were ideal versions of women not actual women. but johnson was one of these women, who really believed in the arts, she was a big supporter of the arts, so she commissioned a portrait bust of herself. you will notice that bust over there on the right-hand side, and other kinds of portraiture. and we tried to cover all of the different ways that first ladies were represented, both in the 19th, 20th, and the 21st century. we have paintings, sculpt

up next we visit this smithsonian american art museum where an exhibit features paintings and photographs created during the civil war. curator eleanor jones harvey describes, how art was influenced by the conflict and how the 19th century public saw symbolic significance for the war and landscape paintings and genre paintings or scenes of everyday life. we begin with a press briefing about the exhibit and then we follow along for a tour of the galleries. this is part one of a two-part program. this is a project that's been gestating for an awfully long time in the wake of the bicentennial american art scholarship really took off like a rocket but one of the things that happened as a result of the bicentennial i think is that we tended to look at historical events as benchmarks along the way nodes of progress as this great country developed, but there wasn't a lot of analytical work done on the effect of some of those events and unless you were working on an artist like winslow homer who directly engages with the civil war in general the war occurs as an event in a number of these artists

and really what we think of is washington dc today an open mall surrounded by the smithsonian and other public educational institutions like the botanic garden as well as the the federal office buildings really was a product of the of the mcmillan commission and so from 1902 until the 1930s congress set about the work of appropriating the funds and making the decisions necessary to execute the plan of the mcmillan commission and la font had imagined a a open corridor from the capitol to the washington monument and there were many encroachments to the mall at that time and unfortunately, or maybe fortunately depending on your historical point of view. the us botanic garden was one of them and so according to the mcmillan commission plan. which can be seen to this day the models of it exist at the at the building museum here in you say it's really fascinating. the botanic garden would have to be moved now congress cared about the botanic garden. they weren't just simply going to legislated out of existence and so much to the over the objection of the existing superintendent at the time. t
