Hey everyone!
For Episode 20, I'm joined by Mark Herbert, a Civil War historian and MA student at Missouri State University, and today we're talking about the history of the Lost Cause. In this episode, we talk about how the Lost Cause mythology has managed to grow since the end of the Civil War, and how it continues to grow. We talk about Confederate Iconography, how Civil War history is lost when intertwined with politics, and get some great book recommendations. I hope you all enjoy!
YDKH's theme music is by the musician Smith the Mister called "Beach Buggy."
