On this archive edition of Fresh Air host Terry Gross speaks with historian Jay Winik about his new book, the best seller April 1865. He writes that April 1865 is a month that "could have unraveled the American nation. Instead it saved it." During that month the Civil War ended with Lee's surrender, Lincoln was assassinated, and the rebuilding of the nation began. Terry also speaks with Andrew Kromah who lives and works in Sierra Leone, which has been rated the most dangerous country in the world for journalists. For eight years Kromah has run an independent radio station (KISS-FM) in Freetown and has reported on the country's rebels and government. Each week, as "Mr. Owl", he investigates local corruption. Twice his building has been burned down. During the 1996 election there, Kromah and his staff were forced to broadcast from the bush to escape injury. (Broadcast Date: July 9, 2001)
