Eric and Jim discuss the important, yet overlooked, fighting that takes place northeast of Gettysburg in the small crossroads town of Hunterstown on July 2. This cavalry action features such famous Gettysburg figures as Wade Hampton, George Custer, Judson Kilpatrick, and Elon Farnsworth. The hosts take a deep dive into the sharp rearguard action by Confederate cavalry against a persistent Union foe on the afternoon of July 2, detail the close calls had by Hampton and Custer, and analyze the significance of Hunterstown to the overall second day at Gettysburg.
