LEARNING HISTORY'S LESSON FROM '1865'

With the United States on the verge of victory in Iraq, the History Channel's April 1865: The Month That Saved America provides a look at a war worth winning. Acting on the instructions of President Lincoln, generals Grant and Sherman fought a hard war but wanted a gentle peace to bring the South back into the Union. Had they exacted revenge, the country would be very different today. However, their success was possible only because of the honor of Southerners like Robert E. Lee, who surrendered rather than extend the war with guerrilla tactics. The show provides a historic blueprint for winning peace.
