 The Civil War was the most important event in American history. That's because it decided what kind of nation America would be and whether or not the promise of universal liberty would be fulfilled. And what decided the outcome of the Civil War was its battles.

Hosted by history professors James Early and Scott Rank, this podcast explores the ten most important battles in the Civil War. It features every major conflict, from the initial shots fired at the Battle of First Bull Run to the end of the war at Appomattox Court House. Key battles include Shiloh, the Seven Days Battle, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Vicksburg, Chickamauga & Chattanooga, and the Overland Campaign. James and Scott explore additional topics such as emancipation, the naval wars of the Civil War, and weapons technology. Plus they get deep into the biographical backgrounds of the Union and Confederate generals (Grant, Sherman, McClellan, Thomas, Lee, Jackson, Beauregard, and Longstreet). Ciencias Sociales

Great Civil War Podcast

A great summary of the major battles. Podcaster does a great job of dropping facts, quotes, and Easter eggs into each episode without getting off topic too much. I enjoy the fact that it is just the right amount of detail to leave you with a decent knowledge of the battle without having to learn the maiden name of some small time commanders wife(some books just give endless details that are so arbitrary)

Very well done

you guys are doing a good job.

FYI the Mongols were excessively concerned with the capture of loot. to this end they implemented draconian laws amongst the tumen ni yasa. all loot was centrally gathered and distributed in a strictly top down manner.

so when you describe looting of the south as "not being like the Mongols" you were misrepresenting the Mongol methods. while they may execute entire populations, the 'tribute' would have been gathered in a lawful manner. post 1207

union loss? last episode you called it victory...
