Kyle Bondo talks about his upcoming move to Texas and teases out the next episodes of War Yankee coming on November 10th, 2021.
Every episode is a work of passion that requires a lot of coffee. I research, read, visit, host, mix, edit, and produce every episode myself. I would greatly appreciate it if you could do two things for me:
1. Send me a quick note of encouragement at thewaryankee@gmail.com. This keeps me going when times get tough!
2. If you enjoy this podcast, please consider supporting the show by buying me a cup of coffee (or two)!
An American Civil War history podcast hosted by Kyle M. Bondo that follows the Overland Campaign led by General Ulysses S. Grant as he drives the Army of the Potomac on its 47-day, 113-mile military campaign South against the Confederacy in 1864.
"Let me tell you what is coming. After the sacrifice of
countless millions of treasure and hundreds of thousands of lives,
you may win Southern independence if God be not against you, but I
doubt it. I tell you that, while I believe with you in the doctrine
of states rights, the North is determined to preserve this Union.
They are not a fiery, impulsive people as you are, for they live in
colder climates. But when they begin to move in a given direction,
they move with the steady momentum and perseverance of a mighty
avalanche; and what I fear is, they will overwhelm the South."
-- Sam Houston, after refusing to swear an oath of loyalty
to the Confederacy to which the legislature of Texas declared his
governorship vacant, February/March 1861.
