I am applying to grad school at the moment and emailing profs to see if one will be an advisor. For history, I want to study the Army of Northern Virginia. Well, the responses I get back... LOL!
Finally, in frustration I told a friend that my doctorate should be: Robert E. Lee beats slaves, or Stonewall Jackson: Fanatical Christian hates women. I bet I would be snapped right up.
It's a shame that history's heroes, truly honorable men, have been so maligned. We are the poorer for it.
