Battle Of Seven Pines: John Bell Hood | Grenville L Gage Story

In this episode of History with Waffles, we explore the history of the 1st Texas Infantry under the command of John Bell Hood during the American Civil War. We visit three key battlefields where the regiment fought, including Antietam, and dive into the poignant letter written by Grenville L. Gage, a soldier in the 1st Texas. In his letter, Gage reflects on the horrors of war, the comrades he fought alongside, and a heart-wrenching promise he made to his children—one he would never be able to keep. Join us as we unravel the story of this courageous soldier and the battles that defined his fate. #civilwar #historywithwaffles #antietam #gainesmill #civilwar    • Battle Of Antietam and Gaines Mill Part 2 ...
