For this year's Gettysburg Anniversary Special, I showcase my 9-volume book series on the Army of the Potomac Order of Battle at Gettysburg. I share my inspirations and goals of the series as well as commentary and samples on the content of each volume.
Drawing from first-hand accounts, newspapers, photographs, monuments, battle stats and commander biographies, the goal of the series is to provide Gettysburg buffs with everything you need to know about each regiment in the Army of the Potomac engaged and involved in the campaign.

On this episode I had the privilege of interviewing author, historian, artist and musician, Mark Dunkelman. We discuss the 154th New York Infantry Regiment, a unit that has been his life work with six books, dozens of articles, monuments and the famous Coster Avenue Mural at Gettysburg. We deep dive into all his many projects along with stories of Mark's ancestor in the regiment, as well as the story of Amos Humiston and his children. Mark is an amazing storyteller and I hope you will be fascinated to hear as I was!

On this episode of The Civil War Regiments Podcast, I'm joined by Father Bryan Brooks, a Roman Catholic Priest and a living historian. We discuss how he is able to juggle his ministry and hobbies, and we also dive into recent events we have both attended. Father Bryan also offers an in-depth look into the Regimental Chaplain during the Civil War and we highlight many personalities on both sides and accounts on the subject. I hope this episode helps to offer insights on the spiritual nourishment of soldiers in conflict.

A new season of The Civil War Regiments Podcast begins in this interview with Peter Vermilyea about Litchfield County (Connecticut) in the Civil War. Peter teaches history at Housatonic Valley Regional High School, he is a graduate of Gettysburg College and is the director of the student scholarship program at the Civil War Institute. He is also the author of many articles and books on Litchfield County, including his latest book "Litchfield County and the Civil War." In his book and through this interview, Peter describes the makings and organization of a regiment (19th Connecticut/2nd Connecticut Heavy Artillery) and it's impact on a community during the war. We focus on the battlefield and the homefront, as well as a deep dive in the horrendous slaughter of the regiment at Cold Harbor in 1864. The Heavy Artillery regiments in the war is a personal passion of mine to study and so I thoroughly enjoyed this interview and a great way to kick off a new season!
