Civil War Podcast, Episode 86

YEAR IN REVIEW- 1861 (July-December)



In which we use a couple of episodes to take a look back at what happened during the first year of the Civil War.


Our book recommendation for this episode is The Longest Night: A Military History of the Civil War by David J. Eicher.

“The Longest Night is a remarkable blend of scholarship and writing.  It should stand for a long time as the best and most complete single-volume military history of the Civil War. A splendid achievement.” ~ Jeffry D. Wert
