Episode 28 West Virginia

Honestly having listened to this again we did a pretty bad job. We didn't really touch on the wheeling convention and we did a terrrible job discussing rebellion in the south. Its constant and wide spread and lead by Black people. 

Episode 27 Forts Henry and Donaldson

In this episode I accidently refer to Braxton Bragg as the man who invades Kentucky. He does... but not till 1862. In 1861 the Bishop Polk invades Kentucky. Whoops. I should make an amendment. Anywho. Its an episode about war! 

Episode 26 The American Civil War Abroad

Today we ramble about the war outside of the USA. How the British viewed the war and how the war effected the globe. 

Episode 25 Acts of Congress

In this episode we discuss several acts of congress during the first year of the war. We discuss railroads, money and contrabands. Its a bit of a scattershot episode but I like it.
