Robert E. Lee on American Experience

Posted in Memory by Andy Hall on January 1, 2011

Happy New Year to all from Dead Confederates blog. Now’s a good time mention that Monday evening, January 3, is the premier of a new biographical film on Robert E. Lee, broadcast on PBS’ American Expereince. I haven’t seen the film, but I’ve heard from those who have that it’s very good, and shows some of the real complexity of the man. I’m looking forward to it.

Update: Here’s Harry Smeltzer’s review at Bull Runnings.

      Thanks — great review, and in line with what I’ve read elsewhere. Link to it bumped upstairs.
