The listener is also given a detailed description of the topography, the area surrounding that part of the battlefield, and an in-depth look at a number of participants in the fight. As always, they separate fact from fiction and explain not just what but why and how. You will not want to miss this episode on one of the most misunderstood actions at Gettysburg!
