About

My name is Scott C. Patchan and this blog is to share interesting information on the American Civil War, primarily the 1864 Shenandoah Valley Campaign, but you will also see other battles discussed hear, especially the Atlanta and Second Manassas campaigns. I am always looking to interact and correspond with those who share my interests and am constantly sleuthing for new material, even for topics that I have already written on because history is an evolutionary process that builds upon what we already know.
