I live next to the Monocacy just south of Worthington's farm and drive through the battlefield occasionally when coming home from Frederick. But I never know Grant was there. I assumed he assigned Sheridan from his HQ in Petersburg. I assume he went up after the battle. Marylanders were ticked off. But the people of Frederick were ticked off when Gen Braddock came through expecting wagons of supplies for his campaign against the French and sent his red coats to appropriate them. Thankfully Benjamin Franklin came out and sorted things out. Braddock had teamsters like Daniel Boone. Going down 85 from Frederick I pass Arcadia which is where Meade was at when he was given command of the Army of the Potomac on the eve of the battle of Gettysburg. Hooker was relieved of command at Prospect Hall which was used as a hospital after the battle of the Monocacy. Five miles from my house is Landon House in Urbana which hosted a Roses and Sabers ball for JEB Stuart in 1862.

I would really like to know what was so funny about the picture at 5:04. I'm sitting here wondering "Is it George Gordon Meade in drag or something? Rocky Horror Picture Show with Meade as Dr. Frank-N-Furter?"

I believe enriches didn’t best he could with what he had. Meade should have taken greater care. But more importantly, I am reminded that with Lincoln’s death full reconstruction was not allowed. How different things would have been.

I think if Lee and Grant had seen the nation today, they would join together in booting out the United Nations.

Why they would present a Confederate flag at his memorial. He wanted to forget and disassociate himself with that part of his life. He died an honorable American.

I'm confused regarding Reynolds. When was he offered command of the AOP? After Burnside's relief? I always thought he refused the offer as he wouldn't be given a free hand to lead the army without interference from Washington and not because he questioned the administration's policies.

Robert E. Lee held slaves. His financial security was based on slavery. His entire life was the purchase, selling, using slaves, whip them and put brine on the whip welts to make it sting. He was the first to utter the words states rights, im going with my Virgina. The Army was his claim to fame. The Army did not pay that much. SLAVES DID. It was like a JOHN DEERE TRACTOR 🚜 on two feet and never needed any gas. Slaves bowed, moved aside, called him Master. WOWSERS, talk about inflated ego with that constant affirmation! Get into the war, those democrats won't like the blood, get European help to negotiate the separate the states. TELL THE BIG LIE, ITS STATES RIGHTS, NOT SLAVERY. Even though its in the CSA CONSTITUTIONS. ROBERT E. LEE captured JOHN BROWN AND HIS SONS, and they were HANGED FOR THEIR BELIEFS that all men are equal under the sight of GOD. I AM ABLE TO FORGIVE ROBERT E. LEE, BUT I AM UNABLE TO FORGET WHAT HE DONE FOR PROFIT. 600,000 DEAD AMERICANS TRYING TO KEEP SLAVERY.

Sherman said that by early July 1863--after the South's twin losses of Vicksburg and Gettysburg--it was obvious that they were going to lose. By inference, he meant obvious to England and France, who would not be coming in to save the Confederacy. His opinion was that the South got what they asked for. They started a fight that they could not finish and continued it way past the point of decency. Sherman and Grant invented modern war. They knew that this was a peoples' war, fought with peoples' armies; and that to win it they had to take the war directly to the Southern people themselves. Also, the amount of damage the Union caused in Georgia and South Carolina should give you an idea of how angry the North was for having this war drag on when it was already decided. Finally, Sherman's troops idolized and adored him; they called him Uncle Billy.

I was there in early April on our way south to Myrtle Beach, wish I had seen this video first. The fields were wet, and little round top was closed, but Devils Den was very interesting. Hard to fathom what went on there as it such a peaceful setting. Hope to go back in a few years and spend 3 days in the area.
