Summary

On this episode, we take a Civil Weird look at Gettysburg through the classic book by Gregory Coco, "A Strange and Blighted Land: Gettysburg, The Aftermath of a Battle" who's work pulled the battle down from the marble pedestal and back into the mud, blood, grief, and chaos of July 1863. We get into the civilians, "ghouls," corpse-strewn farms, hospital scenes, and the emotional wreckage left behind in the battle’s wake. It’s Gettysburg stripped of some of its polish and returned to the people who had to live through it. Lets make it Civil Weird!
