Robert E. Lee: A Life with Allen C. Guelzo // The American Story
The American Story with David M. Rubenstein
Recorded March 30, 2022
Robert E. Lee: A Life
Allen C. Guelzo
Since betraying his nation in a bloody fight to uphold slavery, Robert E. Lee has long been a source of fascination even beyond the racist mythology of the Lost Cause. With his deceptively genteel demeanor, Lee’s wealthy but scandal-ridden upbringing in Virginia and his long career in the U.S. Army eventually led him to a treasonous fight for slavery. Award-winning historian Allen C. Guelzo takes a hard look at Lee’s character and legacy, both of which continue to sow division in American society today.
Allen C. Guelzo, a three-time Lincoln Prize winner and senior research scholar at the Council of Humanities at Princeton University, is the author of Robert E. Lee: A Life. David M. Rubenstein (moderator), co-founder and co-chairman of the Carlyle Group, is the author of How to Invest: Masters on the Craft and the host of History with David Rubenstein on PBS.

I had never heard of Charles Demuth and am now fascinated by him and his paintings! There is so much rich history from our Gay Artist Brothers who often had to work in the shadows of their true identities, but thankfully, they were smart enough to speak in a 'coded' language we can decipher today.

    From David A. Wood: As a person, former US President Donald Trump has all of his life luckily, very luckily indeed, "failed upwards." Trump has dismally failed as a son/family member, as an Elite Miltary School student, as a College Student, as a high-powered businessman, as a romantic suitor, as a husband, as a parent, as a law-abiding American citizen, as a politician, and finally as an Adult Man. Basically, the only thing Donald Trump has undeniably succeeded at being his entire life is his being "a First-Class F**k-Up!" Nuff Said and Peace Out from Kettering, Ohio, everybody. ☮️🇺🇲😃✌️👍
