## Resource

In Episode 46, Darin Weeks and Mare Fincher, co-hosts of the excellent "Civil War Breakfast Club" podcast, join co-hosts John Banks (fresh from a trip to Ireland) and Tom McMillan for a freewheeling discussion of generals (O.O. Howard!) as well as lesser-known soldiers from the Battle of Antietam. Plus, they dish on their long-running podcast, favorite Antietam spots and much more. This podcast is sponsored by Civil War Trails , which since 1994 has connected visitors with small towns and big stories across a network that now spans six states. Join McMillan and Banks for regular podcasts about Antietam, the Maryland Campaign and the Civil War — the most compelling period in American history. McMillan is author of the recently released The Year That Made America: From Rebellion to Independence and four other books . Banks is author of A Civil War Road Trip Of A Lifetime and numerous magazine articles about the Civil War . Find them on Facebook at Author Tom McMillan and John Banks' Civil War Blog .
