Civil War Breakfast Club

This week we talk Battle of Monocacy. It could also be called the Redemption of Lew Wallace! 

Civil War Breakfast Club Episode 47 - Retreat from Gettysburg!

Our wrap up of the Gettysburg Campaign is with the retreat from Gettysburg.  Probably one of Lee's more brilliant moments, but Meade doesn't do too bad himself here either.

Civil War Breakfast Club Episode 43 - Civil War Trails Funderaiser!

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!

Civil War Breakfast Club Episode 42 - Vicksburg Part 2 or 8th time's the Charm!
