The American Civil War remains one of the most pivotal and complex periods in our history. While much has been written, countless fascinating questions still spark our curiosity. In our podcast Civil War Curious, we enlist expert historians to answer your lingering questions about the conflict.

On this episode, we're joined by Eric Michael Burke, a U.S. Army combat infantry veteran of the wars in both Iraq and Afghanistan and a historian of culture and warfare in Europe and the Americas. His first book, Soldiers from Experience: The Forging of Sherman's Fifteenth Army Corps, 1862–1863, was published by LSU Press in 2022. He answers questions about the lives of Civil War soldiers and the weapons they used.
