“But of the federal prisoners that were held in Confederate prisons, only 22,576 died in captivity. While on the other hand, 26,576 Confederates died in Yankee captivity. In other words, the South held 50,000 more Union prisoners and had 4,000 fewer inmate deaths. So very obviously, when you just look at the figures, you've got to conclude something is wrong somewhere.”
