I grew up near Greensboro, NC and always heard stories about the Battle of Guildford Courthouse and its significance as a turning point during the Revolutionary War. I never knew the Confederate cause literally dissolved in Greensboro. It shows how much we selectively pick and choose moments in history to remember. Thank you Ranger Brown for your lecture.

must have been a heart crushing time for Southerners and what was left of their military.

The Confederates were outmanned, out gunned and out maneuvered during the end of the war. I have to believe the soldiers knew it was over way before it was over. Outstanding presentation, very informative.<br><br>Thank you

I just stumbled upon this video after watching a documentary of the battle Chikamauga. Im so glad i clicked on this. One of the best presentations iv ever listened to. Made even better considering i live in NC and iv been to nearly every place mentioned. The "walk home" part nearly made me cry.

i enjoyed this talk. It was filled with information and insight. I had not realized that Lane's brigade had such a dismal ending engagement. Even the last walk that the speaker brought up was insightful and filed me with some dim part of the emotion these men felt as the war truly ended for each.
