MOUNTAIN TREK FROM CUMBERLAND GAP

George Washington Morgan (later in life) 1820-1893

In which Rich & Tracy, with scratchy throats and failing voices, power through the episode to share the story of the epic march of the Federal garrison that evacuated Cumberland Gap during the 1862 Kentucky Campaign.
