The Gettysburg Campaign did not end at the banks of the Potomac on July 14, but two weeks later, deep in central Virginia along the line of the Rappahannock. Once Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia slipped across the swollen Potomac back to Virginia, the Lincoln administration pressed George Meade to cross quickly in pursuit - and he did. Rather than follow in Lee’s wake, however, Meade moved south on the east side of the Blue Ridge Mountains in a cat-and-mouse game to outthink his enemy and capture the strategic gaps penetrating the high, wooded terrain.

Mispronunciations Abound
Revisado: 07-30-24
I loved the content of the book, but was frequently distracted by the narrator’s mispronunciation of words that should be common on this topic, like Susquehanna, Rappahannock, and Chapultepec. He also frequently mispronounced General Ewell’s last name (E-Well), General Wofford’s name (woof-ford), and Berdan’s whole name (herum burr-done). He even mispronounced the word “beleaguered” twice (blackerd)! Seriously? Didn’t anyone coach him?!
