ECW on C-SPAN3: Mine Run
The “forgotten battle” of Mine Run comes to C-SPAN 3’s “American History TV” this weekend—just in time for the anniversary of the campaign later this month!
Chris Mackowski’s talk from the Sixth Annual Emerging Civil War Symposium at Stevenson Ridge, “The Great Battle Never Fought,” will debut this Saturday at 6:00 p.m. ET and re-airs at 4:00 a.m. ET on C-SPAN 3. You’ll be able to watch it online afterwards here: https://www.c-span.org/video/?463239-11/1863-battle-mine-run.
Additionally, Dan Welch’s talk on Secessionville will re-air Sunday morning at 9:55 a.m. ET on C-SPAN 3. That’s available online here: https://www.c-span.org/video/?463239-9/1862-battle-secessionville.
Just finished his book now on the campaign. It was delight to read particularly since a violent thunderstorm interrupted my tour of the field. Looking forward to the broadcast.
Thanks, Dan–glad you liked it!
I’m reading your book on this now Chris.
The book is indeed very well done and an extremely useful resource.
