About this listen
The American Civil War remains one of the most pivotal and complex periods in our history. While much has been written, countless fascinating questions still spark our curiosity. In our podcast Civil War Curious, we enlist expert historians to answer your lingering questions about the conflict.
On this episode, we're joined by Gary W. Gallagher, the John L. Nau III Professor of History Emeritus at the University of Virginia. He is the author or editor of a number of books on the Civil War, most recently The Enduring Civil War: Reflections on the Great American Crisis, and has recently finished writing a history of the Battle of Chancellorsville. He discusses how the Confederate flank attack at Chancellorsville was able to succeed, as well as which of the opposing commanders—Joseph Hooker or Robert E. Lee—was more responsible for the battle’s ultimate outcome.
