We'll hear the previously untold story of the founding of Arlington National Cemetery. Author Carlo DeVito tells the tale in his new book, Mrs. Lee's Rose Garden. It's a look inside the tragically disintegrating relationships that turned a towering estate into the national resting place for so many war heroes. We'll also talk about Arlington's role in our country's history; Robert E. Lee and Reconstruction; and the poignancy of these subjects with Memorial Day approaching. Our guests:
- Carlo DeVito, author
- Timothy Kneeland, chair of the department of history and political science at Nazareth College
- Joseph Fornieri, director of the Center for Statesmanship, Law, and Liberty at RIT
