Thank you @StuffWriter! Where would we be without you? 😊 I am a proud Pennsylvania Native, living in Colorado, so I can't get back to Gettysburg much. I have to say, next time I go, it will be during the Winter Lectures. The motorcycles would absolutely ruin my mood during a spring or summer battlefield walk. Thank you again!
My GGF, Michael Carroll Hennessey rode with Morgan on his Ky raids and the Ohio raid . He was in Chenault's11th; captured during Ohio raid; imprisoned Camp Douglas , remainder of war..Hennessey was born in Ireland and penned a song about Morgan's Christmas raid.I have the song's lyrics if you are interested (free). GGF rode a Denmark Saddlebred which did not become jaded for a long while..
The John Wayne question was a trick question - he never played a Confederate soldier. In Rio Lobo he was a Union Soldier (prisoner) who was forced to wear a Confederate Uniform
I think the implication is that he was also one in True Grit. He named his cat Sterling Price. Could have missed a line somewhere though. He is a confederate veteran in the searchers.
I live 30 mins north of Cincy and have driven the John Hunt Morgan route from Indiana out to Buffington Island read a couple books yada yada...it's very interesting stuff. I really enjoy Matt's presentations on the civil war. While he did a great job landing on his feet with missing two pages of material, I just wonder what all we missed out lol. Good stuff.
The numbers don't match up on the troops after Nelsonville??? Where did they all go ? They split south of Nelsonville and rode into the West ... There was a heated battle just west of old poston station . Cannon against Cannon their faster stolen breech loaders quickly won !!!
I absolutely love Matt's lectures!
Me too
Thank you so much Stuffwriter, and of course my favorite, Matt Atkinson. A thoroughly knowledgeable and entertaining Program, as usual.
Thank you, stuffWriter for bringing Matt into my house again. He is a marvel of knowledge.and so funny!
Been patiently waiting for a new video from Matt, he never disappoints!
Very excited for a new Stuffwriter video, and it's featuring Matt!
Always excited when I see a new presentation by Matt, he is the best.
I wish college professors could learn to deliver their lectures like this. Fun and entertaining.

Thank you StuffWriter!

According to Google Translate, the French in the letter at 1:01:56 reads "Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet".
HERE WE GO BABY!!!!
There's my Sunday sorted
Despite what you may hear, John Hunt Morgan is still held in high regard here in the Commonwealth.
Awesome
Good to 'see' you again Stuff. I was wondering where you and Matt have been hiding.
matt is so good '' great'' at this
If there an actual Confederate soldier in the audience? Security arrest that man!!😂
The John Wayne question was a trick question - he never played a Confederate soldier. In Rio Lobo he was a Union Soldier (prisoner) who was forced to wear a Confederate Uniform
I always appreciate you sharing our history with such knowledge and understanding . Thanks as ever
Was he not a Confederate veteran in The Searchers?
@@skyjac92 I think you are right - I was thinking of rio lobo where he wore one but wasn’t a confederate

He's the best in the business
