Robert E. Lee and Me: A Southerner's Reckoning with the Myth of the Lost Cause by Ty Seidule

4.0

---

This book was so eye opening and soooo up my alley. As a former Civil War lover with a soft spot for Robert E. Lee, this book was a much needed read. He addresses all the Lee myths I grew up hearing and believing. He also walked through the Confederate Lost Cause myth and why so many monuments are up in this day and age. I hope this book will change how we teach the Civil War.
