Ask A Gettysburg Guide #86- Brigadier General John Gibbon with LBG Chris Army Apr 01, 2024

Show notes

LBG Chris Army is back to talk about Brigadier General John Gibbon of the II Corps, Army of the Potomac.

From Gettysburg Daily:

"John Gibbon was born in the Holmesburg section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the fourth of ten children born to Dr. John Heysham Gibbon and Catharine Lardner Gibbon. When Gibbon was 11 years old the family moved near Charlotte, North Carolina, because Dr. Gibbon took a position as chief assayer at the U.S. Mint. John Gibbon graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1847 and was commissioned a brevet second lieutenant in the 3rd U.S. Artillery. He served in the Mexican-American War without seeing combat, attempted to keep the peace between Seminoles and settlers in south Florida. In 1855, Gibbon married Francis "Fannie" North Moale. They had four children: Frances Moale Gibbon, Catharine "Katy" Lardner Gibbon, John Gibbon, Jr. (who died as a toddler) and John S. Gibbon. Lieutenant John Gibbon taught artillery tactics at West Point where he wrote The Artillerist's Manual in 1859. The manual was used by both sides in the Civil War."

You all know and love Peter Miele and Codie Eash. They're great historians and they've shared a lot of what they've learned with us all, here on AG, at the museum and elsewhere. But who are they? How did they get to positions that make their names known to us all? Well, we get into that in the SPOTLIGHT ON, recorded last November in the refectory at the Seminary, in front of a live audience. Enjoy!

In The Shadow of the Round Tops with Allen Thompson Mar 04, 2024

Show notes

Allen R. Thompson, author of In The Shadow of the Round Tops, stopped in to talk about his book. In this interview we really parse every detail we possibly can of Longstreet's Countermarch. Allen is a lawyer and, therefore, this book is written with a lawyer's approach, which I found refreshing. Who knew what and when did he know it? Was [insert information here] something that this person or that person would have known at the moment, or is it something he learned from someone else down the road? Allen put together a wonderful book about this mysterious part of the Battle of Gettysburg and Six Questions Lentz and I had fun breaking it down with him.

Gettysburg Rebels - CW Hoffman with Tom McMillan PP Feb 26, 2024

Show notes

Tom McMillan is back for the final installment about Gettysburg Rebels. This time, it's CW Hoffman and his sons. Hoffman owned a carriage-making business here in Gettysburg before the war. He decided, in the 1850s, to move his business closer to the bulk of his clients in Virginia. So he packed up and moved to Shepherdstown (now in West Virginia). A few of his employees decided to follow him. Do you know who? Press play and find out. If you haven't gotten your hands on a copy of Tom's book, "Gettysburg Rebels", yet, head over to For the Historian and get your copy today!

Medicine, Science, and Making Race in Civil War America Feb 12, 2024

Show notes

**NOTE: This was recorded last Winter, during the old days when we recorded out of a shed with a failing solar power system. This interview went about ten minutes longer but a chunk of it had to be cut due to digital distortion that actually had nothing to do with the electrical issues. God bless Erik Dorr for saving us from that shed!*** This social and cultural history of Civil War medicine and science sheds important light on the question of why and how anti-Black racism survived the destruction of slavery. During the war, white Northerners promoted ideas about Black inferiority under the guise of medical and scientific authority. In particular, the Sanitary Commission and Army medical personnel conducted wartime research aimed at proving Black medical and biological inferiority. They not only subjected Black soldiers and refugees from slavery to substandard health care but also scrutinized them as objects of study. This mistreatment of Black soldiers and civilians extended after life to include dissection, dismemberment, and disposal of the Black war dead in unmarked or mass graves and medical waste pits. Simultaneously, white medical and scientific investigators enhanced their professional standing by establishing their authority on the science of racial difference and hierarchy. Drawing on archives of the U.S. Sanitary Commission, recollections of Civil War soldiers and medical workers, and testimonies from Black Americans, Leslie A. Schwalm exposes the racist ideas and practices that shaped wartime medicine and science. Painstakingly researched and accessibly written, this book helps readers understand the persistence of anti-Black racism and health disparities during and after the war. https://uncpress.org/book/9781469672694/medicine-science-and-making-race-in-civil-war-america/ Become a patron so that we never have to work out of a shed again!
