On this episode I interview author Tom Elmore on his book, "Potter's Raid Through South Carolina: The Final Days of the Confederacy." We learn about this Yankee raid that occurred after Lee had officially surrendered. We hear the story of Medal of Honor Recipients and defiant ladies with gardening shears. Was the raid necessary? Was this a surgical military operation or a ruthless bout of destruction?
