This is part 2 of our conversation with Brad Gottfried on the 1862 Maryland Campaign from the U.S. Civil War. In this episode we look at the morning phase of fighting that took place on Sept. 17, 1862 near the Antietam creek. We examine famous areas of the battlefield like the Bloody Cornfield and the West Woods, where in a matter of hours thousands of souls would be sacrificed upon the alter of freedom.

The author of 18 books on the U.S. Civil War and counting, as well as a licensed Battlefield Guide at Antietam and licensed Town Guide in Gettysburg, Brad's knowledge will help everyone from history new-comers to die hard enthusiests understand one of the greatest struggle in our nation's history.
