    How tied was Barksdale to the ill gotten gain of robbing the poor of their labors? (Not to mention robbing them of their God-given freedoms, love & companionship of their families, affection of their wives, etc. All that is dearest in life.) I'm sure he was a part of the $laveocracy. Bark$dale was not a good man. And now, with his morals out the window & love of $ is his god, he is now a threat to the very Constitution & our precious liberty enshrined therein.

    I’m confused. Is he talking about the 1864 presidential election in the beginning? Wouldn’t July 1863 be super early to affect the November 1864 election? I know he said voting starts in February and news moved slow but that’s still 8 months.

    Great tour. My only minor issue would be conducting a tour, and having to shout so the crowd can hear you, in the middle of a cemetery. Yes, it's a significant location at Gettysburg for the battle, but a cemetery is still a cemetery. Respect should be shown and noise should be kept to a minimum.

    The author is mistaken about the two birthdays, yes both are in January. But not on the same date. I should know, for l married my ex-wife on the birthday of one of America's greatest generals. Did'nt realize l had did the deed until months later reading The Farmer's Almanac. There was a list of famous Americans birthdays in the back of the almanac, this was back in the mid-90s. Can't remember if MLKs was in their or not.

    In our urban world, too many, perhaps most people are without a “home”. Uprooted or rootless. It is always painful for me to return to my hometown in East Texas,, not only because the town is much declined from what it was, but especially because the house I grew up in, now exists only in my mind, because it is physically gone and the whole area now covered with a new growth of forest, Robert E. Lee did return to the Capital and so saw Arlington standing there, but it was at the edge of a graveyard, and so he must have felt they same sense of total loss. “Be it ever so humble...”

    McClellan should have only been a Quarter master general. He did not have the nerves or guts whatsoever to be a front line combat commander. Lincoln should have put him there. Of course Pope ,Hooker , and Irwin were worthless! Lee went through 6 Union Generals until he met Mead and then Grant . Sherman would have given Lee the same blood bath .
