Now I have to say ‘War Chicken’ by Meg Groeling
So many great comments. I’m afraid I have a bias towards the more recent ones. The POW envelope investigation is one of my favorites. I liked Stewart Henderson’s series as well.
Evan Portman’s posts about the two Frederick locations associated with Meade taking command and the location of Lee’s headquarters in Chambersburg.
all of them
My favorite post by far since joining has been the post about Edwin Booth, the older brother of Lincoln’s assassin, John Wilkes Booth, and the deep sense of guilt he felt over his brothers action and how he tempered his guilt with the knowledge that he’d saved Robert Todd Lincoln at a train station during the war. I enjoyed that post becubecausease while John Wilkes Booth looms large in American history, we don’t often take the time to evaluate how his family reacted to his crime.
