SUMMARY:General Grant's Order #11
DESCRIPTION:General Grant issued Order #11 on December 17\, 1862 - and was immediately plunged into a shameful controversy. Order #11 would embarrass the General so deeply\, he would make no reference to it in his Memoirs. The Order expelled Jews from the Department of the Tennessee\, a vast military district running from the Ohio River to the Gulf of Mexico. Order #11 was a case of blatant bigotry\, and so unlike Grant that the questions must be asked: Why did he issue the Order at all? Why did he so quickly rescind it? And how did his remorse over the matter eventually lead him to a special redemption? Grant Cottage tour guide Steve Trimm will present this talk.
