You mean there's no evidence presented by McPherson and the park ranger. What really is amazing to me is the number of men with doctorate degrees readily presenting evidence of these brave men and women and I'm supposed to take the word of a park ranger. Tell you what, I've suggested it before and I doubt you'll bother even now, why not try The Confederate Negro by Dr. James Brewer. Written back in the late 60s, it shows more than just anecdotal evidence of the blacks support of the Confederacy. BTW, Walt, he was black. But unless it agrees with your yankee revisionism foisted upon us by people like McPherson, it doesn't count, right?
What you ignore every time this comes up is that Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee and the CSA congress have no apparent knowledge of what you swear as gospel. It's got nothing to do with historians and everything to do with the historical record.
You won't touch that because it won't back up your fantasy.
