Wittenberg on CW Talk Radio

Eric Wittenberg, Union cavalry researcher, is featured on the current (June 17) Civil War Talk Radio site. Although he's promoting his new book, Little Phil, the conversation covers Union cavalry commanders generally. Unfortunately, the host has framed the show around the question "What was wrong with Union cavalry?"

In this webcast, Eric also touches on the death of Brian Pohanka calling him a "mentor." He says he has heard from Brian's wife Cricket that mourners should send contributions to Civil War Preservation Trust in Brian's name in lieu of sending flowers or such.
