    From the regiment's monument:
    "The Brig. formed on this line on the morning of July 2nd. At eve it moved to the support left of army. Returning, it found the position and woods on rear occupied by Johnson’s Division, Ewell’s Corps. During the night it lay in line of battle. At dawn, July 3rd, the 20th Conn. advanced under cover of artillery and fought 5 hrs. driving the enemy and reoccupying the works. Was relieved by the 123rd N.Y. In the afternoon moved to support the 2nd Corps against Longstreet’s assault.

    SPOTLIGHT ON: Peter Miele & Codie Eash From The Seminary Ridge Museum & Education Center

    You all know and love Peter Miele and Codie Eash. They're great historians and they've shared a lot of what they've learned with us all, here on AG, at the museum and elsewhere. But who are they? How did they get to positions that make their names known to us all? Well, we get into that in the SPOTLIGHT ON, recorded last November in the refectory at the Seminary, in front of a live audience. Enjoy!

    In The Shadow of the Round Tops with Allen Thompson

    In The Shadow of the Round Tops with Allen Thompson

    Allen R. Thompson, author of In The Shadow of the Round Tops, stopped in to talk about his book. In this interview we really parse every detail we possibly can of Longstreet's Countermarch. Allen is a lawyer and, therefore, this book is written with a lawyer's approach, which I found refreshing. Who knew what and when did he know it? Was [insert information here] something that this person or that person would have known at the moment, or is it something he learned from someone else down the road? Allen put together a wonderful book about this mysterious part of the Battle of Gettysburg and Six Questions Lentz and I had fun breaking it down with him.

    Gettysburg Rebels - CW Hoffman with Tom McMillan PP

    Gettysburg Rebels - CW Hoffman with Tom McMillan PP

    Tom McMillan is back for the final installment about Gettysburg Rebels. This time, it's CW Hoffman and his sons. Hoffman owned a carriage-making business here in Gettysburg before the war. He decided, in the 1850s, to move his business closer to the bulk of his clients in Virginia. So he packed up and moved to Shepherdstown (now in West Virginia). A few of his employees decided to follow him. Do you know who? Press play and find out.

    LBG Larry Korzyck joins us for his very first time to talk about the top ten infantry actions in the Battle of Gettysburg. This list is one of the many contributions Larry made to the book Top Ten at Gettysburg .

JoshHoytChicago ,

Wonderful show, with one caveat

I found and listened to this podcast after listening to all of the episodes about Gettysburg on The Civil War Podcast. I am thrilled to find this show. The host is knowledgeable and it is really nice how he incorporates the professional guides. I also like that he has clear opinions - for example about the importance of the cumulative 12 hours of battle for control of Culp’s hill, and the need to lift this up for greater acclaim. This seems to be an excellent show and I am looking forward to listening to older episodes!

There is one thing I found irksome, and that was the denigrating the story of the 20th Maine and Col Joshua Chamberlain at Little Round Top. It kind of sounded like insider expert snobbery, making fun of the folks who only know about the Battle through the movie, and the over romanticization of that battle. OK…, Respectfully I would suggest that if the movie is the ‘gateway drug’ then the attitude of the experts and guides might be: “We are so happy you found this story and we welcome the opportunity to show how much more there is….”

Regardless, thank you for this work!

Georgia Unionist ,

Great show

I am ecstatic I found this podcast. Reignited my love for Gettysburg. Such depth and wonderful guests.

Bandits19 ,

Only about the Benjamins?

AG used to be great but all they care about is milking every dime from their “pay to listen” customers which is a shame because it was a fantastic podcast. I canceled my patreon because it wasn’t worth even $5 to watch Matt babble about things and hear the same rehashed guests over and over again.
