The Generals character on display as he keeps his hat removed inside the church. Great series loving it!

General Parker Hills is a treasure. He guided us over both Shiloh and Vicksburg. You get the twin benefit of a great historian who is also a retired US Army General, so you get the hands-on commander perspective. Great experience. Garry, had to buy that map book! Bought both the Eastern and Western Theaters. Contributed also. Glad you are doing these videos!

Watch out for the low doorway to get into the church! I almost broke my head getting in there because I was careless. I actually saw stars. For a minute there I thought I might be the last Shiloh casualty...

Looks like a good time to come to Shiloh, the leaves are gone from the trees but it's warm enough for short sleeve shirts. I was there in mid September and hit was hot, muggy and a whole lot of bugs.

I'm always amazed how Albert Sidney couldn't understand turning the Union left was almost impossible.

I enjoyed this series. Couple things i would have you add was more total troop numbers in this battle, and did these Army's have smaller units, like company's or platoons?

The 77th Ohio's camp was adjacent to the church. The Colonel of the 77th, Hildebrand, was brigade commander of the 53rd, 57th, and the 77th Ohio, and used he church as his headquarters. The second map you show is inaccurate, lot's of mistakes as to the placement of various regiments. A more accurate guide would be the Staff Ride guide to the battle of Shiloh.

Shiloh place of "irony". Had Beauregard pushed on before nightfall, could the Rebs have possibly pushed the federals into the river and held the bluffs over the Tenn. River? Any success would have depended on the outcome of day one, given Buell's arrival.

No. It's the weather that everyone forgets about but our storms are furies. Look at April 27,2011.
