Episode 28: East Cavalry Field at Gettysburg - Part One
In this episode of The Battle of Gettysburg Podcast, Eric and Jim begin their two-part deep dive on the fighting of July 3 at East Cavalry Field. The co-hosts discuss why this action is important, what led David Gregg and JEB Stuart's cavalry forces to meet on that part of the field, and the role of Union and Confederate troopers that afternoon.
The listener is also given a detailed description of the topography, the area surrounding that part of the battlefield, and an in-depth look at a number of participants in the fight. As always, they separate fact from fiction and explain not just what but why and how. You will not want to miss this episode on one of the most misunderstood actions at Gettysburg!
