RE: Judah Benjamin - The Jewish Confederate
Quote:I wonder (and doubt) if a statue has ever been erected to honor Benjamin?

Oddly enough, there are NO statues to Benjamin in Richmond! There are at least 2 of Davis; and on Monument Avenue there are the statues of the Generals; but nothing for Benjamin!

I agree - he was a brilliant politician and statesman. He reminds me of Benjamin Disraeli; also Jewish and also a brilliant and beloved statesman....
