>The "conciliatory atmosphere" died with Lincoln thanks to Booth. That's when the Radical Republicans took over and punished the South, thus making the assassination the greatest disservice ever performed for the South post Civil War. "Punished the South?" As in, tried to make sure that blacks could vote and were fairly represented in government? -Z

Z, > Even if I did, knowing the conciliatory atmosphere after the CW (only one Confederate soldier was executed by the US), I'm not sure I'd agree with you. The "conciliatory atmosphere" died with Lincoln thanks to Booth. That's when the Radical Republicans took over and punished the South, thus making the assassination the greatest disservice ever performed for the South post Civil War. And Booth was pro confederate.....that should tell you something.
