We all know that during the Gettysburg Campaign in 1863, JEB Stuart was "ridin' 'round up North gettin' his name in the papers." Undoubtedly, he ain't caused nothing but a little fuss. But what about his foray into the Keystone State in 1862? Well, Tracy Baer joins us to fill us in on that lesser-known raid. I'm learning. You're learning. Let's learn together. I'll continue to do the heavy-lifting finding and interviewing guests and all I ask from you is your support to keep AG going and growing.

You've heard of Imboden's Brigade. But what do you know about it and its role in the Gettysburg Campaign. Steve French fills us in. Steve is a former middle school history teacher and graduate of Shepherd College. His works include Imboden's Brigade in the Gettysburg Campaign; Rebel Chronicles: Raiders, Scouts, and Train Robbers of the Upper-Potomac; and Four Years Along the Tilhance: The Private Diary of Elisha Manor.
Following two anti-Meade witnesses was a third, General Albion P. Howe. After Howe's testimony Senators Benjamin Wade and Zachariah Chandler felt they had enough evidence to present to President Abraham Lincoln in order to have Meade fired. Instead, at Lincoln's behest, Meade himself would appear before the committee to defend his record during the Gettysburg Campaign.

Excuse Me History is back with a new addendum to "The Gettysburg Campaign." In this mini-series "Meade on Trial", we'll discuss the 1864 hearings held by the United States Congressional Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War. The Joint Committee, led by the Radical Republican Senators Benjamin Wade and Zachariah Chandler, sought answers as to why the Army of the Potomac failed to destroy the Army of Northern Virginia at Gettysburg or along the banks of the Potomac River. The Committee convened in the late winter and early spring of 1864 to investigate the actions of the army during the Gettysburg campaign and General George Meade in particular. Their goal was to remove Meade from command and replace him with a more radically minded general, ideally Joseph Hooker. In this first episode we'll discuss the formation and purpose of the Joint Committee, the Radical Republican plan for the war, and the first two witness testimonies: Daniel Sickles and Abner Doubleday.
CWRT Feb 2024 For more info : WWW.ChicagoCWRT.Org Often small individual encounters in history, experienced by common people like us, caught in the maelstrom of events, hold larger truths. Sometimes these experiences have meaning—not only for those who experience them, but for us in today's world. This program follows twelve members of the 17th Connecticut Regiment through the three-day Battle of Gettysburg and beyond in July 1863. It focuses on the stories of the wounded, the caregivers, and the honored dead. These men fought for their lives, lost friends, and suffered themselves at Gettysburg. Their sacrifices are still with us today and from them we inherited great social and medical advances. Because of their sacrifices we began to understand the hidden costs of war, and that not all wounds are visible. The stories of these twelve citizen soldiers highlight the meaning that their lives and experiences have for our generation today: socially, medically, and psychologically. These are their stories. Carolyn Ivanoff is a retired high school administrator and independent historian. She writes and speaks frequently on American history at local, state, and national venues. In 2003, Carolyn was named Civil War Trust's Teacher of the Year. We Fought at 2 Gettysburg is her first book. It follows the 17th Connecticut Regiment through the Gettysburg Campaign and beyond in June and July of 1863.

"Scott L. Mingus Sr. and Eric J. Wittenberg, the authors of more than forty Civil War books, have once again teamed up to present a history of the opening moves of the Gettysburg Campaign in the two-volume study “If We Are Striking for Pennsylvania”: The Army of Northern Virginia and the Army of the Potomac March to Gettysburg. This compelling study is one of the first to integrate the military, media, political, social, economic, and civilian perspectives with rank-and-file accounts from the soldiers of both armies as they inexorably march toward their destiny at Gettysburg. This first installment covers June 3–21, 1863, while the second, spanning June 22–30, completes the march and carries the armies to the eve of the fighting. Gen. Robert E. Lee began moving part of his Army of Northern Virginia from the Old Dominion toward Pennsylvania on June 3, 1863. Lee believed his army needed to win a major victory on Northern soil if the South was to have a chance at winning the war. Transferring the fighting out of war-torn Virginia would allow the state time to heal while he supplied his army from untapped farms and stores in Maryland and the Keystone State. Lee had also convinced Pres. Jefferson Davis that his offensive would interfere with the Union effort to take Vicksburg in Mississippi. The bold movement would trigger extensive cavalry fighting and a major battle at Winchester before culminating in the bloody three-day battle at Gettysburg. As the Virginia army moved north, the Army of the Potomac responded by protecting the vital roads to Washington, D.C., in case Lee turned to threaten the capital. Opposing presidents Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis, meanwhile, kept a close watch on the latest and often conflicting military intelligence gathered in the field. Throughout northern Virginia, central Maryland, and south-central Pennsylvania, meanwhile, civilians and soldiers alike struggled with the reality of a mobile campaign and the massive logistical needs of the armies. Thousands left written accounts of the passage of the long martial columns. Mingus and Wittenberg mined hundreds of primary accounts, newspapers, and other sources to produce this powerful and gripping account. As readers will quickly learn, much of it is glossed over in other studies of the campaign, which cannot be fully understood without a firm appreciation of what the armies (and civilians) did on their way to the small crossroads town in Pennsylvania."

On July 6, 2023, author Hampton Newsome delivered a lecture about the little-known United States offensive against Richmond during the Gettysburg Campaign in the summer of 1863. Sometimes referred to as the Blackberry Raid, the Union offensive was led by John Dix and provided a significant opportunity as 20,000 U.S. troops advanced on the Confederate capital and sought to cut the railroads supplying Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia in Pennsylvania. To some, Dix's campaign presented a tremendous chance for federal forces to strike hard at Richmond while Lee was in Pennsylvania. To others, it was an unnecessary lark that tied up units deployed more effectively in protecting Washington and confronting Lee's men on Northern soil. Hampton Newsome is the author of several award-winning books on the Civil War, including Richmond Must Fall: The Richmond-Petersburg Campaign, October 1864 (2012); The Fight for the Old North State: The Civil War in North Carolina, January–May 1864 (2019); and his most recent title, Gettysburg's Southern Front: Opportunity and Failure at Richmond (2022). Gettysburg's Southern Front received the Edwin C. Bearss Book Award for Outstanding Scholarship in Civil War History from the Chicago Civil War Roundtable and was named one of top 10 books of 2022 by Civil War Books and Authors.

Listener (and one of the sponsors of this episode) Casey Turben arranged for us to go to Winchester, Virginia ( a great city surrounded by beautiful scenery) and reocrd a show with historian Jonathan Noyalas from inside of Star Fort on the outskirts of the city. There we talked about Robert Milroy's occupation and subsequent ousting from Winchester during the Battle of Second Winchester, June 13-15. From the American Battlefield Trust: "The Battle of Second Winchester was the second engagement of the Gettysburg Campaign. After his victory at Chancellorsville, Lee decided to invade the North once again to provide relief to war-ravaged Virginia. He hoped to fight and win a decisive battle on Northern soil. Lee planned to march up the Shenandoah Valley to cross into Maryland, where the army's movements would be screened by both the Blue Ridge Mountains and Gen. J.E.B. Stuart's cavalry. Lieut. Gen. Richard S. Ewell's II Corps received the mission to clear the valley for the rest of the army, and at Winchester, succeeded in doing so."

Back in September of 2022, Matt, Six Questions Lentz, LBGs Chris Army and Tracy Baer and friends went down to Culpeper, Virginia to take a tour of Brandy Station battlefields with Clark "Bud" Hall and then record a show on Fleetwood Hill. Bud has led a remakable effort to preserve hundreds of acres of battlefield over the decades and it's truly an amazing place to visit. The grounds saw far more activity that just that famous cavalry battle on June 9, 1863. From the American Battlefield Trust: "Fought in the second week of June 1863, Brandy Station was the largest cavalry battle ever fought in North America. With momentum firmly in hand after his stunning victory at Chancellorsville, General Robert E. Lee decided to launch a second Northern invasion. On June 3, the Army of Northern Virginia began the movement away from Fredericksburg. The first leg of the march took the Confederates to Culpeper Court House. From there, Maj. Gen. J.E.B. Stuart's cavalry division was to screen the infantry as the march continued to the Shenandoah Valley. Stuart's concentration, however, was detected by Union cavalry led by Alfred Pleasonton. Under the assumption that Stuart planned a raid around his right flank toward Washington, Maj. Gen. Joseph Hooker, the commander of the Army of the Potomac, directed Pleasonton to cross the Rappahannock River and destroy the Confederate cavalry. Early on the morning of June 9, Pleasonton sent columns over the Rappahannock at Beverly Ford and Kelly's Ford. Following the crossing at Beverly Ford, the Union troopers truck Stuart's camp in the vicinity of a rail station on the Orange & Alexandria Railroad, Brandy Station. The Confederates quickly rallied, and the Federals ran into stiff resistance at St. James Church and the Richard Cunningham farm. After moving over Kelly's Ford, the Union cavalry split up. One division headed for Brandy Station while the other made their way to Stevensburg. The arrival of blue troopers at Brandy Station threatened the rear of Stuart's position. Stuart countered by deftly shifting his brigades, and the two sides clashed in mounted combat on a long, low ridge that rose from the station called Fleetwood Hill. Correspondingly, Pleasonton's force at Stevensburg were stymied by Confederate horsemen. Unable to break through Stuart's position, Pleasonton abandoned the field after fourteen hours of fighting."

After at least an hour of constant artillery fire the Pickett-Pettigrew-Trimble Assault, better known as Pickett's Charge, finally began. The Confederate infantry marched toward Union lines on Cemetery Ridge, taking fire from artillery and infantry skirmishers. When the rebels crossed the Emmitsburg Road Union infantry of General Winfield Scott Hancock's Second Corps opened fire. A small group of Virginians led by General Lewis Armistead managed to climb over the stone fence in a gap in the Union line near the Copse of Trees. Despite the breakthrough, Federal troops rally and repulse the rebels, ending the Battle of Gettysburg in a Union victory. https://www.facebook.com/EMHistory?mibextid=LQQJ4d
After General Robert E. Lee's original plan for July 3rd was spoiled he and General James Longstreet prepare an infantry assault, involving some 12,500 soldiers, on the center of the Union line. A pre-attack cannonade was led in part by Col. Edward Porter Alexander. Around 160 Confederate guns bombarded the Union Second Corps along Cemetery Ridge for around an hour in the hopes of demoralizing and driving them off. Meanwhile, General George Meade correctly anticipated the Confederate assault and made preparations to defend against it. Union soldiers try to relax and eat until the afternoon silence is broken by the rebel artillery. https://www.facebook.com/EMHistory?mibextid=LQQJ4d

A few months back, we had LBGs Chris Army and Lewis Trott on to share their top five Gettysburg resource recommendations. Now, it's the ladies' turn! LBGs Deb Novotny, Sue Boardman and Jessie Wheedlton share the books that they think every student of the battle must read. Have you read the books they recommend? LBG Jasan Hileman is the newst guide to join us on Addressing Gettysburg. Also, Joe from Peach Orchard Publishing joins us for the first time as producer/engineer. When I asked Jasan to do the show I told him what I tell every guide who comes on: you can choose from a list of listener submitted topics or you can name your own. Jasan said he wanted to do a WTF Moments epiosde. Since that title is already overused, I harkened back to the days of hair gel and parachute pants and borrowed a line from the great American philosophers C&C Music Factory for this show's title. In this episode, we cover many things that leave a lot of us scratching our heads about the Gettysburg Campaign like Mr. Stuart's Wild Ride, Ewell's "inaction" on Cemetery and Culp's Hill and more. This was yet another fun episode to record and we hope you have fun (and learn a bit) listening to it. LBG Chris Bagley joins us for his first time on the show to talk about the horse at Gettysburg, which just so happens to be the name of his book. Sometimes we might overlook just how important beasts of burden like horses and mules were for Civil War armies, but they were. As you might have guessed, just like other species, there are different breeds of horses suited for various uses. This is a good episode for horse-lovers or just anyone who wants to end their day knowing something they didn't wake up knowing.

LBGs Fran Feyock and Doug Douds, with Historian Jared Peatman, join us to discuss the genius behind Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. This isn't a discussion of the dedication event, but, rather, an analysis of the speech itself and, I dare say, I think you'll like this one. The Gettysburg Address: Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. LBG Jasan Hileman is the newst guide to join us on Addressing Gettysburg. Also, Joe from Peach Orchard Publishing joins us for the first time as producer/engineer. When I asked Jasan to do the show I told him what I tell every guide who comes on: you can choose from a list of listener submitted topics or you can name your own. Jasan said he wanted to do a WTF Moments epiosde.
