richard st. george manser st. george. this is interesting to start with. >> wendy:. it said if i were a prince, my history would interest nations and ages. he was no prince, he was not a nobleman, he was a protestant. but his life is actually of interest to nations and also of interest to a new anyone, this current age in which tens of thousands of people are going to learn about richard st. george manser st. george. so back when he wrote this to a fellow artist and friend henry fucelli, i think he was trying to be modest, he was trying to show he was modest even though sometimes he was not modest at all. but he will be on the front line, and the cost of revolution is all about that it is about the dynamic and unexpected stories of the preponderate aeo events of the american revolution. that is a diverse group of people. what can a live tell us about an era, and how can one life be a window into the past? some of the great events of the past, specifically the american revolution. his slief a win

richard st. george who fought alongside the british against the colonists. the pritzker military museum and richard von hess foundation host this event. >> i can hear you all buzzing about the exhibition that you had an opportunity to see this morning, so before i introduce our next speaker, i'd like to introduce myself. my name is dr. elizabeth grant, and i am director of education here at the museum of the american revolution, and it is my true pleasure to introduce our next speaker, matthew skic, lead curator of our newest exhibiti exhibition, cost of revolution, life and death of ie an irish soldier. a recent review in the philadelphia inquirer claims this exhibition has it all, love, death, psycho drama. the exhibition's starring figure, a wealthy irish nobleman of the protestant ascend psy who finds himself on the wrong side of two revolutions in america and ireland as quote, part dickens with a sprinkle of yankee doodle, part drama queen. so there's no doubt that richard st. george's story

richard harding davis. richard harding davis. he is a conceited but well-known writer and playwright who becomes famous. in the spanish-american war a year or so after this myth took hold. he was a writer, and one of his first books was titled "soldiers in fortune." still in print. you can still get it through amazon. it's sort of a romance novel in which he sort of depicted himself as a central character. richard harding davis. he was the son of a newspaper editor and his mother was a writer, rebecca harding davis was her name. remington and davis were assigned by hearst to go to cuba, and they were there to cover the rebellion on cuba against spanish colonial rule. that was their assignment. hearst, as he was wont to do, paid generously for the talent. he paid richard harding davis $3,000 for one month's work. in 1897 money, that was a lot. today it's worth about $90,000. $90,000 for a month's work. hearst pays generously for top-line talent. also in the lineup of who was whom in this myth, the first to m

further contradicting this tale are the letters that richard harding davis sent home. he was very close to his mother, he kept in touch with his family by mail very often. his letters are kept in an archive at the university of virginia charleston. his letters to his family about this time offer no support for creelman's account about why remington left, that everything was quiet. none of his letters, none of davis's letters home suggested that davis wanted to leave on the pretext that everything was quiet in cuba. he gave somewhat related versions, three somewhat related versions as to why remington went home. one of those versions was that remington had obtained all of the material he needed for his sketches and decided to go. that message was contained in a letter that davis wrote and remington carried with him back to the states. remington presumably would've had an opportunity to read the letter. another related version that davis wrote was that remington went home at davis's request. he did not like working in pairs, he describes remington as a big, blundering be

richard armour had seen enough by 1963 to put his finger on something. scholars were interested in looking behind the stereotypes. no one was paying much attention to the scholars. many of whom were still hidebound by 19th century assumptions and regional cultures. the stories remained what they had been for quite a long time. and then came vietnam. to getdenly, we begin some kind of an idea about how it could be possible for americans to come to blows with each other on american streets. suspecthe problems i would be a peacetime historian -- it is just not possible to feel and convey the primal emotions felt by people in such times of consuming national and cultural crisis. hence, we tend to intellectualize and rationalize explanations as substitutes for true understanding of the reasons people are. -- people act. maybe the civil war was in efficacy. that there was no way to deal peacefully with something that momentous. of the truisms that historians often repeated from a half-century ago was that the war and its result made us one nation again, this t

we talked about richard nixon and lyndon johnson, for instance. for clinton, what he saw in his home growing up. the kind of views and arguments. that had to have some impact on him. his attempt as a young person to try and negotiate the differences between the adults in his life, to try to handle that. i think if you read some of the literature of children who grew up in alcoholic homes, some of them develop a certain attitude about how to try to mediate conflicts. >> to think historically too, to think about growing up in 1946, like clinton and w, he grew up completely under the shadow of the modern presidency. the presidency is this incredibly powerful office. just an ever present reality in the life of clinton and george bush when they were growing up, which is different than prior presidents. >> i could see how that transpires because he was more of a centric candidate. he always tried to negotiate with republicans and he actually was the first president since 1969 to get a budget passed. that kind of also transpired to the presidency. >> any

richard rush comes back to the united states. he successfully put the money, which was about 105,000 pounds, into u.s. currency, just over $500,000. the equivalent today of maybe $15 million which does not sound quite so extraordinary. because you could imagine the smithsonian in recent years has received several donations that are quite a bit larger than that. but at the time, if we go back to the 1830's, it was truly an extraordinary gift. and, i like to think of it as in a couple of different ways. of theabout 1/66th entire federal budget then, which today as you can imagine since we are talking about trillions of dollars as our federal budget, it would be a very big number indeed. another way to think about it is it was essentially the equivalent of harvard university's endowment. rush wasn 1838 when coming back is about 200 years at this point. their endowment is not the gift of one person, but of many gifts. this gift wasof really quite exceptional. so now congress had to decide what is an institution for the increase and d

actually in movies that weren't playing in native american character, including franklin delano roosevelt, richard nixon, the famous union leader jimmy hoffa, cher. the reasons why people warhead dresses in these particular ways vary. again how people would never think in this context would end up wearing a headdress. and through most of the country's history would seem like something that just made sense. when we talk about these representations surrounding americans throughout their lives, one of the most important ways is through movies and television. we have a section in this exhibition which really shows almost 100 years of these images, from 1935 movies -- from the 1939 movie "stagecoach" all the way to the unbreakable kimmy schmidt and other contemporary television comedies. and it's a little bit like the celebrities that end up playing a indian or wearing a indian outfit, that situation comedies in the 1960's and 1970's had nothing to do with indians, they would routinely have some indian themed shows. sometimes it was thanksgiving. sometimes it was not. it could be "the munsters." it cou

senate appropriations committee richard shelby announced that question agreed to $7.8 billion in emergency spending. the house is planning a vote on the measure later today. >>> president trump, vice president pence and members of the administration's coronavirus response team met with airlines ceos this morning. they discussed efforts to prevent the spread of the virus among travelers. at the end, the president talked about super tuesday primary results. >> some of the biggest and the best and know the business better than anybody. they've been in it a long time and emerged to in all cases head their companies and we were talking about the effects of the virus on the air travel and what they see. in a certain way you could say the borders are automatically shut down without having to say shut down. they're two certain extent automatically shut down but it's affect thing the airline business, as it would. a lot of people are staying in our country and they're shopping and, uh, using our hotels in this country. so from that standpoint i think probably there's a positive impact but there's a

this is their union president meeting with richard nixon. here are some of the union leaders. over the course of the 1970's they found they were unable to change things. they determined that when their next contract expired, which would be in 1981, that they would strike if they had to to change the situation. these were buttons they started to wear by 1980 on the job. they knew their contract would expire. i'm going, that means i am going to strike. this is a headset controllers used to wear. they were ready to strike a blow for unity. they had gotten no real help from the carter administration so they gambled. they decided to endorse carter's opponent, ronald reagan. they thought in reagan -- they wrote a letter to him, they said -- he said i will help you if i'm elected. they found they did not get what they wanted and they did go on strike. on august 3, 1981, they went out on strike in airports and controls to centers all over the country. they froze air-traffic for some days. what reagan did is exactly what maynard jackson did in atlanta in 1977. he said you have 72 hours
