It was there on July 2, 1863, that Confederate troops attacked the Army of the Potomac's 11th Corps. "Of all the different aspects of Gettysburg, East Cemetery Hill gets the least amount of attention," says Lash. It was made up of battle-tested veterans from Ohio, Indiana and West Virginia. They got the name Gibralter Brigade for their rock-like defense of the so-called "Bloody Lane" Road at the battle of Antietam in September 1862. Their commander, Col. One regiment, the 153rd Pennsylvania, was made up largely of Pennsylvania German troops from Northampton County. The most prominent members of the 11th were ethnic German or German immigrants. Gettysburg is the one Civil War battle that most Americans claim to know a lot about. The focal point of Lash's book is the performance of these ethnic German troops in battle and the aid given to them by the Second Brigade of the Second Division, Second Corps of the Army of the Potomac. Germans were called "Dumb Dutch," who could talk a good fight but would run away if approached by the enemy. Almost to a man, the Union Army officers, in many cases New England YaThe US founder places a Malawian pastor in charge of the school, then spends his time raising funds in the US while trying to manage a business he owns plus travel back and forth to Africa to oversee the school. You have a gift & if people will at least be open to looking at their own & others perceptions, lives will change. What I thought was valuable is that this book tells a truthful story about the efforts of one man, a man with no prior training in ministry, flying only on faith, trying to do something to help at risk kids in Malawi. We get entries on 4 Vultures, 2 Visions, a mammoth look at the complicated history of Wolverine and his origins. I have always been a follower of the Ketogenic Diet and this book has added so much more info about it that I am fully beginning to comprehend it more. Today I was looking over a problem that had a Pile depth of 10 feet but they used 11 feet in the calculation. If anyone has ever tried to make clear the the foundations of employment discrimination law, Donohue cuts them to dust. I love how possessive Marrock is. It is true that not everyone is comfortable with do-it-yourself publicity. The Very First Christmas has wonderful bright pictures to keep a 6 year olds short attention and written in a way little ones can understand. Not for in-depth reading or review, but more an icebreake
