I’ve heard quite a few Civil War talks/presentations, and this is definitely one of them…haha. Seriously, this was one of the most well spoken, informative and interesting ones I’ve ever heard. This guy made me want to hear him go on for at least another hour or so. Well done!<br>It also made me want to go walk that battlefield——something I’ve yet to do.

For years I thought that the General in Ray's story was Grant, but later I realized that it is quite possibly William Tecumseh Sherman. It was Sherman who was with his company that night before the attack near the church, while Grant was in a house on the other side of the river, Sherman was known to be a talkative while Grant was a person of few words. That is the good thing about well-written works, which have more than one reading.

Superb! As to the neg. comments about his moving around: any audience is easily distracted, so BE the distraction.
