That was another enjoyable podcast from the ECW Team. Like many of us here, I grew up with the Golden Book Illustrated History of the Civil War and loved the David Greenspan Bird’s Eye view of Civil War battles. There is nothing like a good map to frame a reader and battlefield trooper imagination like a good map and Ed Alexander’s maps are outstanding.
Keep up the good work.
Glad you’ve been enjoying them! And I agree, Edward’s maps are great!
