"What if this is as good as it gets?" Last year at the music muster at the bandshell in Pitzer's Wood's, Ranger Matt approached me with those words. The day before I had put my Weimaraner down who would travel with me every week to Gettysburg for our hike. Matt has said that phrase multiple times on tours that are posted on RUclips. Matt is great he made my day that night. He is a part of what makes Gettysburg so great..
Always look forward to his winter lecture I have always enjoyed his take on the Civil War. Plus he's a southern boy so it's usually a good chance it's a take on a southern subject something that is becoming rare in these days.
How did Lee, Hill and the other Rebels lose at Gettysburg? Well, they were no longer fighting on their home ground. They were in Pennsylvania and Meade and Hancock, two Pennsylvanians, were leading their troops on their home ground. I always found those facts to be most important.
Wonder if Jackson got in trouble with Lee during 7 days for being late multiple times. And that’s the reason that he arrested Hill during Antietam. This was only a few months later…rules for thee but not for me.

That’s a ridiculous comment. This is the best the lecture series have ever looked or sounded, never mind the fact that it was available only days after the presentation. Plus if these are going to live on a monetized RUclips account I’d much rather the money go toward supporting education and battlefield preservation through the foundation than a private individuals commercial enterprise.

We're glad you found the lecture informative and entertaining!

The enigma of AP Hill.
This isn’t as good as when Addressing Gettysburg did it
shame how they undercut the AG crew. should be working together, not against each other.
@@JMcDowell361 I agree. The Gettysburg foundation usually screws things up whatever they try to do

@ then please improve because the camera angle sucks video quality is not as good as when Addressing Gettysburg did it
