Thanks, Miami Civil War Round Table Book Club

My presentation met with a pleasant reception on the evening of January 18 at the Miami Civil War Round Table Book Club.  I talked about the Petersburg Regiment (12th Virginia Infantry) on August 19, 1864, when it took losses in excess of forty percent in that incident of the Globe Tavern struggle that Lt. Col. William H. Stewart of the 61st Virginia in the Petersburg Regiment's brigade called, "The No-Name Battle."  It was a toe to toe fight between the 600 of Weisiger's Virginia Brigade and 150 Georgians knocked loose from Colquitt's Georgia Brigade, and 1,120 Federals from a decimated division of IX Corps.
