We discuss the 2nd Battle of WINCHESTAH (as we like to call it here). Also the Gateway to Gettysburg. It's also General Richard Ewell's shining moment in the Civil War. 

We are so happy to be partnering with Civil War Trails to do a fundraiser for them! They're an awesome group that love to tell the story of the Civil War! Think of them as an open air museum! And yes, we do have books to give away too!

This week we are back in the western theatre (the Canadian's geography skills astound the American's) and talking part 2 of Vicksburg! We follow Grant, Sherman, Birbseye & other through swamps & bayous as they try to make their way to Vicksburg. 

We discuss some of the good, the bad, the ugly (and underrated!) of the Civil War. 

Huge thank you to Eric Schlehlein, author of "Black Iron Mercy" & "The Dim White Light", who joined us to talk aboot the Iron Brigade. We very much enjoyed this discussion with him!

We conclude our discussion aboot Chancellorsville - Howard is back again, as is Hooker, Jackson and Lee! 

Chancellorville Part 1 - Stonewall, Hooker, Howard - They're all here! 

We wrap up our discussion aboot the Carolina's Campaign with a discussion aboot the surrender of Johnston to Sherman at Bennett Place in April of 1865!

In this episode, we are back at the end the Civil War War with the escape and capture of Jeff Davis!

In our second episode aboot secession, we talk aboot what led to the firing upon Fort Sumter as well as a bit of the aftermath of it.
