- History
After attacking the Devil's Den (successfully) and Little Round Top (unsuccessfully), the Confederates continue their assault again the tenuous Union defensive line on July 2. General Lafayette McLaws sends his four brigades in attack against Union positions on the Stony Hill, the Wheatfield, and the Peach Orchard. In this episode I also discuss the Civil War phenomenon known as "presentiment", the Irish Brigade (and more broadly the Irish in the Civil War), and General Dan Sickles's favorite leg.
