Confederacy: Myth of the Lost Cause

  • Resumen

  • How do you justify a war you lost, and that destroyed countless homes, businesses, towns and families? This was a question facing the southern states after the Civil War.


    Their answer? The myth of the Lost Cause.


    In this final episode of our series on the Confederacy, Don catches up with Ty Seidule to find out where this myth came from, and what it really is.


    Ty is a Brigadier General (Ret.) of the US Army, Professor Emeritus of history at West Point and author of 'Robert E. Lee and Me: A Southerner’s Reckoning with the Myth of the Lost Cause'.


    Produced by Sophie Gee. Edited by Aidan Lonergan. Senior Producer was Charlotte Long.
