If the camera guy zoomed out, he wouldn't have to move constantly, AND we'd see the damn screen

This guy thinks he has a "southern accent"? Being an 11th generational Southerner, he sounds more like a Yankee to me

The South and Lee knew that they couldn’t win, unless they got France and Britain, whose governments preferred southern independence, to intervene The Russian czar didn’t want Britain, which surrounded Russia in India and Western Canada to grow even stronger, sent his fleets to New York and San Francisco and threatened war if France or Britain got involved And Lincoln ended slavery, which made British military support for the south politically impossible

Comment from : @jacobfarrow7096

Wow, this is, by far, the greatest explanation of the Gettysburg campaign I've ever seen/heard (even after having read multiple books on the subject) The presentation fills in many of the gaps in my knowledge, especially about Lee's strategic mindset at the time Brilliant stuff! Thank you Mr Knott!
Comment from : @josephcamm9374

Fantastic Thank you I've armchair studied the American Civil War my entire life and have never gotten the answer to "why" Lee continually attacked an above-average defensive position and didn't alter his plan (particularly on Day 3) I could never understand WHY he ignored Longstreet and all these battle-hardened vetarans that knew what they were doing and were very capable of reading a battlefield

Great lecture and fresh information for a civil war newby
Comment from : @benjaminzone4093

It’s absolutely bizarre and unacceptable that a lecturer can call himself a confederate and receive laughter
Comment from : @williamjames8818

The South had 5 million non-slaves compared to the North's 22 million The South had 8 percent of the national economy Looks like owning slaves makes you stupid or as terminally arrogant as a donkey Jefferson Davis after the war "That private arms in the hands had proved a sad delusion The South had gone to war without counting the cost"

Great presentation, but I wish the camera operator had shown the slides when he referred to them

Comment from : @TheVigilantEye77

The War was not only won by attrition, but when Grant via "Sherman's March to the Sea," took the war to the (Southern People), It was the 19th Century equivalent of dropping the two Atomic Bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki! Defeat the people, to win the war! You don't defeat an enemy by winning battles upon the battlefield! We lost Vietnam, because we were never prepared to wipe out the countries that were the true antecedent causes of the conflict! Had it not been for "Sherman's March, " the war would have somehow continued! Possibly?

The guy with the camera is excellent at keeping the camera on his smiling face But is extremely terrible showing us what he's talking about on the big screen
Comment from : @daveycrocket4873

This an extremely emotional southerner; his main issue is to be entertaining
Comment from : @ernestlane

He makes an interesting point about the outrage that would have resulted from President Obama arresting Eric Cantor That’s effectively no different from President Joe Biden‘s Department of Justice putting his number one political opponent Donald Trump on trial in an election year, 2024 Interesting how times have changed in only ten years 🤔

Thank you Mr Knott, this is as complete and understandable an explanation of the whole of this battle that is not covered in any literature or media sources I have seen I am more informed about this topic than before

The guy teaching at the war college considers himself a confederate? Did I hear that correctly?
Comment from : @azbdizzy4176

I knew a guy whos name was JB Stuart On his driver's license application he wrote his name as "J" only "B" only Stuart but when he got his license it said Jonly Bonly Stuart
Comment from : @michaelknight4041

I think they should’ve redeployed at Gettysburg! I think Jeb Stuart was just as much to blame as anybody for the southern loss at Gettysburg!brbrI think Buford literally won that battle for them north just by choosing the ground! He set them up! This is the first main battle without Stonewall Jackson and although AP Hill was capable, it was his first campaign as Corp commanderbrbrSo all these little things interpersonal relationships, loss of your greatest Lieutenant, your other lieutenants, not really being completely aware of what your goal is although I think Longstreet was brbrI think the guy that gets little acclaim is Longstreet Not specifically for this battle, but for helping maintain his army for as long as he did Longstreet was more defensive commander and I think he really agreed with the philosophy You’ve got to have good ground I’m not basing this on anything but books that I readbrbrI wonder how many people realize this but the only southern general and major commander in the confederate army that does not or did not have a monument erected for him was James Longstreet! James Longstreet was a Republican Prior to the war one of his best friends was Sam Grant! And after the war, he politic for US grant as president! I don’t think the South ever forgave him for that and for losing the war! I think there was a lot of bias against James Longstreet On that day just before the battle the second day, the south should’ve redeployed they had general Meade by the short hair! All they had to do was force him into a confrontation in the land of their choosing and they would be the confederate states of America today That’s my opinion and I could be wrong but the funny thing is I’m a Yankee lol brbrLee should never fought on that ground was totally blind that should’ve been his first indication to redeploy! Pickett lost 15,000 men on the third day or thereabouts For a charge over open land! The day before they tried to take the heights Only they had a chance was day one! They could’ve overrun Buford and forced Anderson into taking defensive position outside of Gettysburg and not on the Heights! But Lee didn’t know because he couldn’t see JEB Stuart lost the South battle at Gettysburg and ultimately the war because of it! The South never regained their strength and they had to play a defensive campaign and hit and run type of war in between attacks thanks to very aggressive Robert E Lee! brbrThanks for the program! It was fun to watch and speculate!
Comment from : @catcherad5444

So basically, the biggest reason why the Confederates lost at Gettysburg was because of a woman coupled with a grudge?

Given some of the silliness that was going on in some of the units I was in during the final years of the Cold War, I am profoundly thankful that we didn't go to war with that leadership roster A fascinating presentation
Comment from : @TheKenPrescott

So I understand Lee's objective is to destroy the Army as it's presented herebut doesn't win after win after win with larger casualties resultingdoesn't all that work towards destroying the will of the people, lower the moral of the military and cause further frustration with Abraham?

Comment from : @james6495

Stuart would not have been able to pull this stunt if US Grant were his commander Grant issued written orders which allowed no wiggle room for the recipient Lee often issued verbal orders which were perfect for Stonewall Jackson who thought the same way as him But Jeb was not as single minded and liked to show off while also trying to win battles Lee was unlucky to lose Jackson, but he failed to adjust his command style to command his army without Jackson

One of Sun Tzu’s first teachings is exactly what the professor started off with 👍🏽 love this professor Ive learned so much This is my favorite channel i enjoy comparing the professors lectures to Sun Tzu’s teachings One of My questions on today’s lecture is for the professor Gen Longstreet “Lee’s old war horse” suggested to Lee several times that they regroup so to gain better ground also Stuart “the eyes of the confederate army” had finally arrived that being said why did Lee one of the greatest most beloved generals decide to attack the center? Do you think he really believed his army was invincible? Love your lectures keep posting thank you sir brHampton Y
Comment from : @HambonesAdventures

Excellent presentation! The lead up to Gettysburg is as amazing as the battle itself, and great explanation of Stuart's actions beyond he was just showboating and goofing around, but how his ego really screwed things up brAlso good to see Bernie Sanders front and center in case he actually becomes POTUS and has to deal with such a situation
