Well, it’s a big range to be honest, but to riff off your mention, it would be a Civil War tale about a young soldier loosely based on my GG Grandfather’s experience in that conflict. We have some tales (some very tall🤣) about him. I was then going to do a continuance of the story with his grand kids during WWII…

I’ve been torn with that as the Yellowstone series has sort of gone there now and popularized the generation hopping genre.

It’s probably all moot as I haven’t actually written anything! 🤣

Start writing, HDH! Every story is different!

Hi All: New to Lit and have really just been jumping around and found this forum. I am a 50 MWM who misses yahoo chat where you could play pool and chat with people. This seemed like a good forum for that and just want to say hi.

Not to derail the historical thread, quick intro...new old fart here, mid-50's straight male, Midwest USA, looking for some connection and conversation. And the occasional descent into online debauchery.
Now back to your Civil War programming!

Grant was probably the best general of the war although I'm also a fan of Longstreet.

He really chafed under Lee didn't he. When i was reading about him he seemed like the type that knew what to do but higher ups wouldn't listen. It was friends with Grant before the war and rekindled friendship after.....

Finished a couple great books on the Indian Wars after doing some research on what tribe my wife may be affiliated with. She’s 1/3 Native American.

The Heart of Everything That Is—Bob Drury & Tom Clavin
The Earth Is Weeping—Peter Cozzens

Both were great reads and you get some insight that they just didn’t teach us in school.

Had Lee heeded Longstreet’s advice, Gettysburg may have ended very differently. Lee was frozen with indecision for the first time in the war as J.E.B. Stuart was incommunicado.

Yes and no. Longstreet was a "good soldier" who followed orders even when he felt they were stupid. Gettysburg really strained his relationship with Lee, particularly Picketts charge. When the best defensive tactician of the war told him the charge had no chance, Lee should have listened.

Longstreet got a bad rap among southern historians for a long time. Part of it was due to a tendency to scapegoat Lee's subordinates rather than admitting that Lee was a good general, not a great general. The second reason was Longstreet quickly reconciled with the Union. He hadn't been keen on the rebellion to begin with and felt that it was his duty to serve his country once the war was over.

Ahh i see.... I did see that he was in the US army for 20ish years before resigning to fight for the confederate army. I wonder if he would have been the lead general instead of Lee if we would have had a longer war or a different outcome. The north had a lot more industry so there is that
