Reconstruction. The most valuable single volume on the reconstruction period is the volume by Dunning already referred to; W.L. Fleming, _Sequel of Appomattox_ (1919), is also excellent; J.F. Rhodes, _History of the United States since the Compromise of 1850_, vols. VI, VII (1906), is the best detailed account; James Schouler, _History of the United States_, vol. VII (1913), presents a new view of President Johnson. Valuable biographies are J.A. Woodburn, _The Life of Thaddeus Stevens_ (1913); G.H. Haynes, _Charles Sumner_ (1909); Horace White, _The Life of Lyman Trumbull_ (1913). On impeachment, D.W. Dewitt, _The Impeachment and Trial of Andrew Johnson_ (1903), is best. W.A. Dunning, _Essays on Civil War and Reconstruction_ (ed. 1910), is strong on the constitutional changes. Studies on reconstruction in the several states have been published by W.W. Davis (Florida), (1913); W.L. Fleming (Alabama), (1905); J.W. Garner (Mississippi), (1901); J.G. deR. Hamilton (North Carolina), (1914); C.W. Ramsdell (Texas), (1910); and others. For documentary material, W.L. Fleming, _Documentary History of Reconstruction_ (2 vols., 1906-7), is essential. Edward Channing, A.B. Hart and F.J. Turner, _Guide to the Study and Reading of American History_ (1912), provides full references to a wide variety of works covering 1865-1911. Consult also Appleton's _Annual Cyclopaedia_, _1861-1902_. On foreign relations J.B. Moore, _Digest of International Law_, 8 vols., (1906). Periodical literature.

He died in 1889. Suggestions that General Lee, the most prominent military leader, be arrested and tried met with such opposition from General Grant, the Union leader, that the project was dropped. Lee died in 1870. [2] A number of these states later repudiated their debts.
