Interview with Michael Vorenberg, Lincoln's Peace

Interview with Michael Vorenberg, Lincoln's Peace

Year(s) Discussed: 1861-1871

Most of us were taught that the Civil War ended with Lee's surrender at Appomattox. However, as my special guest, Michael Vorenberg, points out, pinpointing the end of the War is not quite as simple as standard history accounts would have us believe, and there is much more insight and knowledge to be gained by exploring an expanded timeline and scope of the Civil War.

Special thanks to Michael Vorenberg for his time and the insight he provided in this episode, and be sure to check out his latest book, Lincoln's Peace: The Struggle to End the American Civil War
