Episode 39--The Vienna and Augusta Arsenals
Channel: War of the Rebellion
Date: 06/02/2023

The rebel states in the War of the Rebellion are often seen as a backward agrarian people. Similarly, the Crimean War is often forgotten as a major nineteenth century conflict. This episode looks at the military commission sent to the Crimean War to look at modern innovations and how likely Jefferson Davis remembered those reports when the rebel government created the arsenal in Augusta, Georgia.

Special Thanks to Park Historian Jim Ogden at Chattanooga and Chickamauga National Military Park. He brought this to my attention.
