info_outline Ask A Gettysburg Guide #3 with Tim Smith- AG CLASSIC REWINDAddressing Gettysburg
As we take a backward glance at our extensive (dad)body of work for the sake of our new listeners who might not go all the way back to the beginning and work their way forward, we chose this episode to be our first. Back in the old days, when Ask A Gettysburg Guide began, we hadn't, yet, fleshed-out the format of the show. Back then, it was a shotgun-approach: listeners sent in questions and I asked the guides for the answers. LBG Bob Steenstra was my cohost and would be until The Rona hit. Tim Smith was a frequent guest and was the first guide to come on the show as a guest. This is...

During the holiday season we are giving all non-Patrons a gift, from AG and our Patrons to you, the non-Patrons. It is the gift of knowledge that Patrons are gaining in such quantities that their tummies hurt. Here is another episode that they highly recommended for you. In this episode, the first installment of many, historian Richard Condon joins Matt to begin the daunting task of learning about Reconstruction, which, you may know, probably has more to do with our understanding of the Civil War than the war itself, at least what's known officially as The Reconstruction Era which...
