A New Season Begins! On this episode I interview Martin Husk, the author of "The 111th New York Volunteer Infantry: A Civil War History." We deep-dive into a compelling conversation of the 111th Regiment and its unique, heroic and troubled history. Missing out on the first half of the war, these New Yorkers would gain their honor in blood on many a battlefield from 1863-1865. Martin's passion for this regiment helps to keep their story alive and bringing attention to these men was an excellent way to kick-off a new season.
