I love the way you do the Army / Corps break down. Seeing the icons of the regiments is wonderful and makes you wanna search them out on the battlefield
Battles, like Baton Rouge, are overlooked. While not as big or pivotal are Gettysburg, a lot of brave men died at these smaller battles. They fought for what they thought to be right.
I am a new subscriber. Have you already made, or will you be making, a video about the Battle of Port Hudson? That is close to my home and I would love to learn more about the battle.
@@mattfaulk8724 Butler mustered the first African American regiments in New Orleans and they fought at Port Hudson. 5000 white Louisiana prounionist soldiers were in Lousiana and Butler mustered a lot of them. The most white prounionist soldiers were mustered i in Louisiana. from the Deep South.
Just wanted to say I've been loving and binging your videos ever since I found them a couple months ago. I've always wished the bigger channels would do more Civil War battle content and now I've found your channel and don't think they need to. You go into much more detail on less talked about battles than they ever would. Hopefully my "likes" and comments help the algorithm for you channel; you definitely deserve way more subs!
Great video. Another good example of how the Trans Mississippi Theater was neglected and overlooked by Richmond as well as by Washington City on the Federal side. Louisiana was the linchpin to our theater for the Confederacy ; it shouldn't have been neglected and lost.
The war in the west is just over a year old as this battle takes place . The Union has made great gains coming south to around Memphis and moving and moving north to Baton Rouge, The confederacy erred in not protecting the river better than it did. While Richmond was Key to keeping the Army in the Field the Breadbasket and meat supply for the Army was across the River.
18:24 USS Katahdin, named after Mount Katahdin, the highest peak in Maine! The -ah- is emphasized heavily, like kataahhdin, not kat-a-din. Good video! Maine uber alles!
I love hearing about the Western theater. Growing up in New Jersey it was always Gettysburg, Antietam, Etc. I only recently was able to visit Chattanooga, Chickamauga, Franklin, and Nashville and enjoyed them immensely!
This is a great video I've really enjoyed it I hope sometime in the future there'll be a video on the campaign for Mobile Alabama Although overshadowed by the campaigns in Virginia and the Carolinas I feel that it should not be ignored
19:00 And this, is why, Army officers should never be placed in command of warships, just as much as Naval officers should never be placed in command of armies. Two completely different specializations.
As a new subscriber, I just stumbled upon this wonderful video, as I was researching the Battle of Baton Rouge. Have you already, or will you be, making a video on the Battle of Port Hudson? Since I live nearby, I would love to learn about that battle.
The family and friendship connections in the Civil War are very interesting. I have learnt Lincoln and Picket were friends and Lincoln visited the wife of Picket in Richmond in 1865!
The border states except for Delaware were very devided in the Civil War. The most divided was West Virginia (it was only new state from 1863 June) where almost 50 and 50 % was the soldiers rate for the two parts (21-22 000). Lincoln avoided any abolition idea for holding the border states in the USA as Kentucky untill Antiatem (I think he was succesful with this, but nowdays many historical curious understand this with big difficulty.). In the Confederacy their border states as Tennessee, North Carolina and Arkansas were same strongly divided in the Civil War. Tennessee 31-32 000, North Carolina about 10 000 and Arkansas about 9000 white unionist soldiers were given in the Civil War. So the Kentuckians fought here and Tennessee regiments under George Thomas at Mill springs similar interesting facts. In the Deep South had pro unionist areas for example in North Alabama so the unionist Alabama cavalry regiment which was the guard for Sherman's headquarter. Contra Kansas gave about 1000 soldiers to the Confederacy (from the earlier southern settlers) and California had a little gerilla actions among the southern settlers. Against to be a short time state seccession movement in South Illinois in 1861 Spring Illinois and the other North State did not gave soldiers to the Confederacy except for some single voluntiers (I mentioned Kansas and California as exceptions). Kentucky gave 125 000 soldiers to the Union and 35 000 to the Confederacy, Missouri gave 110 000 soldiers for the Union and 40 000 for the Confederacy, Maryland gave 80 000 soldiers to the Union and 20 000 to the Confederacy so it is said Lincoln policy in 1861-1862 was succesful to hold the border states in the Union!
After about 2 weeks Butler withdrew the unionist troops from Baton Rouge. He wanted to concentrate his troops round New Orleans. From July Butler began ro muster white Lousianian prounionist regiments, earlier some prounionist lonely men joined to the Northern regiments. Butler the inventor of the contraband slaves law idea, first he began to use the contraband exslaves for team workers, cooks for the Northern regiments. The first African American regiments were mustered by Butler in September. When Lincoln replaced him in December of 1862 Butler had more soldiers than he brought from the North. Baton Rouge was occupied again in December of 1862 . Banks got a ready corps to besiege Port Hudson.
Just saying but I can’t wait to learn more about this battle because the only thing that I know is that John Cabell Breckinridge Vice President under James Buchanan was the confederate commander in the battle.
No one talks about how Stevens was forced to go to Baton Rouge by van dorn, the ship was not in fighting condition, and had a literal fraction of its crew (enough to man only 1 cannon) van dorn threatened Stevens with court marshal if he didn’t go to Baton Rouge (he made sure to send brown off to Grenada first)
What's that in the back? Is that the 7th Vermont coming? Wait a minute... Oh shit! Williams, Williams move! Williams the 7th Vermont's coming! Oh my God, he has headphones on! He can't hear us!
The 6th Michigan fought in detachments at Baton Rouge, not one body as shown on your map. Due to a dispute with Gen Williams, Williams sent the field officers and some captains down river, after they had been removed from command, to await courts martial. With the death of Williams, they were restored to command.
Love the videos but it’s pronounced Op-a-loose-us 😂 Definitely a pronunciation I haven’t heard before. Keep up your awesome civil war battles though, loving these so much.
4:12… EXACTLY y the confederacy lost the war, they stupidly thought the north would invade from the north so sent Louisiana’s army to help fortify the northern border instead of staying home and fortifying the BREAD MAKER OF THE SOUTH! Louisiana was straight up the economic backbone of the Confederacy. It was the major port of the south and STILL is. They didn’t expect the north to form the anaconda nor did they expect attack from the sea, they expected it to come from the north and be all land fighting, but North took a different strategy and cut the south off from the rest of the world and made probe attacks from the sea to detour then started main offensive from the north. Good strategy which worked perfectly and regrettably considering I am a Louisianan with Confederate ancestry. The CSA didn’t have intent on war, they only wanted Independence from the Union to become their own country WITHOUT bloodshed, the northern states REFUSED that and began the mobilization of an army to send to the southern states to shut up any talk of succession, so the southern states mobilized their own army best they could to counter it, but didn’t know those forces was being mobilized as a decoy to detour the CSA from the water to land approach from the gulf and Atlantic first with what forces the Union already had while gathering the forces for the northern invasion. The Confederacy should had put more into navy and broke that anaconda chain and left all armies to guard until they could gather enough to start an offensive. They didn’t strategize long enough but they wasn’t really given the time to do so either so I can see where they had to quickly react, but splitting forces from the major strategic points is NOT a good decision and that showed quickly in the war which ruined the south’s chances from the start like horrible decision making of taking Louisiana forces from its lands to defend territory that already had its own defense armies with neighbors close by to reinforce. They didn’t need the Louisiana forces even tho EVERYWHERE Louisiana forces engaged they was the best of the best on the field doing heroic acts to win the battles. Only lost Louisiana territory because Louisiana’s armies got split up and threw off to distant borders for nothing else but to lose Louisiana territory to Union forces. Shame, pure shame them Louisiana boys was forced off to defend other states when their own state was left barely armed to resist any attacks. So yeah thank Virginia and all them other states the requested reinforcements from Louisiana for the downfall of the Confederacy. If u could have held ur own then we could have held our own aswell instead of sending our best out to defend u… 13:24 just shows that even a small band of Louisiana soldiers against an entire division of Kentucky troops, Louisiana boys came out roughed up but Kentucky boys got a beating til they realized they was all in friendly fire, just imagine how the soldiers from both sides felt after that was over and all the losses the Louisiana boys put on them Kentucky boys while defending themselves while being fired on from the Kentucky tards
This demonstrates the abject failure of doctrine and war planning throughout history. The summer is prime campaigning season in places like Europe and West Point, but in the deep south, the summer is hell. Winter and spring are the campaign season. Fall only if you are lucky with the tropical systems which could not be predicted. That the commanders of the time didn't know that is a foreshadowing of what happened in the Spanish-American War and WW1. Old doctrine that does not fit the situation.
I'm not sure why CSS Arkansas was considered"fearsome". It was clearly a steaming pos. Far more useful for storytelling (even in 1862) than it ever was to the CSA navy.
The ship broke through the union blockade for a time and wreaked havoc it's entire life. Maybe rushed construction, but a brave and fearsome ship nonetheless.
What this map leaves out is elevation. The Confederates were attacking uphill, and the Union forces held the high ground. I used to live in Baton Rouge, and Magnolia Cemetery was on my work commute to downtown for 9 years.
Just saying but Benjamin Hardin Helm is also related to Mary Todd Lincoln because he is the brother in law of Alexander Humphreys Todd and helm is also known for being the half brother in law to Abraham Lincoln and helm and Lincoln are half brothers in law because when Mary Todd Lincoln’s mom died her father married another wife named Elizabeth Humphreys Todd and she is the mother of Both Alexander Humphreys Todd Samuel Brigs Todd and both Alexander and Samuel were killed in the war with Alexander being killed in this battle and Samuel being killed at Shiloh but Elizabeth Humphreys Told also had a daughter Named Emilie pariet Todd and she is the wife of Benjamin Hardin helm but what’s interesting to me regarding helms wife is after Benjamin Hardin helm was killed at chickamauga the Lincoln’s extended an invitation to Mrs helm and she along with her daughter Katherine arrived at the White House in December of 1863 and the Lincoln’s were so nice that he defended mrs helm and her daughter from political attacks.
Lincoln was born in Kentucky and he had connection with Kentucky through the Ohio river when he lived in Indiana. He visited a justice of the peace to observe law cases in Kentucky (He got the first iniciative to became lawyer there!). Later his wife came from Kentucky and his political role modell was Henry Clay from Kentucky. I think he thought his first biggest political success was to hold Kentucky in the USA in the Civil War! I think Lincoln had not any revenge idea in 1865.
There is no evidence that Grant was personally corrupt. He did surround himself with assholes but that was the nature of 19th century politics. On the other hand it's highly debatable as to whether Grant was a full blown alcoholic or not. More likely he was a binge drinker, who drank when he was lonely or depressed. He NEVER drank around his wife or children. Rumors of his drinking after Shiloh have long been debunked as the petty machinations of Henry W. Halleck who was trying to discredit Grant in order to get promoted. It's interesting to note that after Halleck did get promoted to General In Chief, the rumors about Grant stopped.

Another video recounting a battle not found by any other creator with such detail and visuals. Just Great!
You never disappoint!
thanks DONCHICHI for the kind words!
I’ve come to the conclusion that many Generals in the Civil War are killed by Friendly Fire.
It's not the most common way for generals to go..but given how this era of warfare required officers to lead from the front, it was more common
can’t lead from behind i guess? also can’t lead if you’re dead
its just a part of war
Funny how history may be repeating itself w Russia in Ukraine
Stonewall???

Question? Didn’t the confederates briefly reoccupy Baton Rouge? I that I remember reading the federals left shortly after the battle.
