What's this?

Thought it was outstanding, only gripe, I wish they would have spent a


little more time on the Battle of the Wilderness. I live about 7 miles from the site, & basically next to the Chancellorsville Battle field. My neighbor has a trench in his yard from Chancellorsville & found several artifacts from the battle. I've always thought Grant has been underrated as a President, took over at a terrible time in US history.
Side note, the reason the Wilderness was so dense was because the area had most of its trees cut to stoke the iron works in the area, leaving a lot of dense under growth.
