US Civil War. General Robert E. Lee surrendered
US Civil War. General Robert E. Lee surrendered to General Ulysses Grant in the McLean House, at Appomattox, Virginia, April 9, 1865. This conjectural view of the surrender in the McLean house parlor was commissioned by Wilmer McLean, to make money. It is inaccurate because the attending people were never all in the room at the same time. Also, Cyrus B. Comstock, and Gen. George Meade were not present
