1863 Gettysburg Before and AfterThe Hagerstown Community College is putting on an interesting Civil War Seminar on Saturday, March 23, 2013. The topic of the seminar is before and after the Battle of Gettysburg. I’ll be presenting about the retreat from Gettysburg. I’ve included a link to the brochure for the event in this post. I hope to see some of you there.

I just posted a comment on the tail end of the comments ending back in 2007; not sure you`ll see it so, in short, “Google” “The Civil War in Your Attic”, a project of the Enoch Pratt Library; all sorts of my Pennock Huey data there.
Sir: I have just finished reading Longacre’s “Lee’s Cavalrymen”, “Lincoln’s Cavalrymen”, Wert’s “From Winchester to Cedar Creek: the Shenandoah 1864”, and Sword’s “The Confederacy’s Last Hurrah” and I am puzzled by Sheridan’s selection of Torbert and Wilson as his chief subordinates. Torbert was Phil’s old roommate and Wilson had been a staff officer for the Cavalry but neither had operational cavalry experience; (did Wilson get forced on Sheridan by Grant?). I am not impressed with Torbert’s work in the Shenandoah against Rosser, nor with Wilson’s work against Hood/Forrest in Tennessee. Your thoughts, please!
Mark,
Good questions, Mark.
You’re correct about Wilson being forced on Sheridan. He was known as Grant’s pet, and there was no choice.
Crook was Sheridan’s roommate, not Torbert.
Nobody seems to know how or why Torbert was chosen. It’s one of those great mysteries.
