Episode description

Bits and pieces of history that are surprising come from all aspects of historic events. For instance, Robert E Lee, the South's greatest General in the Civil War tendered a resignation letter to his president, Jefferson Davis when the war was still raging. Davis wrote Lee back and refused to accept his resignation. The rest, as they say, is history. But, to experience the anguish of  Lee's letter, and the encouraging reply of Davis gives a sense of the desperate time, but also the respect both men had for each other. It's all in this episode of "The Brandy Show."
