Failure to Prosecute Jefferson Davis and the Lost Cause
This chapter discusses the failure to prosecute Jefferson Davis after the Civil War and how it contributed to the propagation of the lost cause. The focus then shifts to Abraham Lincoln's belief in being merciful to the rank and file of the Confederate army who were misled, but holding accountable those who knew better and actively participated in the Confederacy. The chapter explores the need for a degree of accountability and mentions the punishment for treason, which is execution, although Lincoln intended to show mercy.
