Listen "Richard Schaus - Lee is Trapped and Must be Taken"
Episode Synopsis
The defeat at Gettysburg left Lee's army hobbled and in desperate need of returning to to friendlier territory south of the Potomac River. Heavy rain, however, flooded the Potomac, delaying Lee's retreat. Historian Richard Schaus talks about this understudied aspect of the Gettysburg campaign and whether Meade pursued the Army of Northern Virginia aggressively enough.
