The American Experience Season Premiere: Robert E. Lee TONIGHT

PBS Hawaii will be broadcasting the season premiere of The American Experience series. Tonight's broadcast focuses on Confederate General Robert E. Lee.

The season premiere profiles Confederate general Robert E. Lee (1807-1870), a fascinating figure who turned down President Lincoln's request to lead the Union Army and, instead, became head of the rebel Army of Northern Virginia.

The program is scheduled for 9:00 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time. Highly recommended.
