American Civil War & UK History
**American Civil War & UK History Podcast**
The podcast was born on December 26th, 2020, and I have always been passionate about history from a young age. My interest in the American Civil War began in 2004 after watching the movie *Gettysburg*. Since then, my passion for this topic has only grown. Although I don't live in America and cannot easily access the Civil War battlefields, I reside in the beautiful county of Kent, known as the Garden of England. Kent has a rich history, which has also fueled my fascination with UK history. This inspired the name of my podcast, *American Civil War & UK History*.
While I have a general love for all history, I realized I had confined myself to specific topics. To expand my discussions, I created two other podcasts in 2024: *For the Passion of History*, where I explore various historical subjects that interest me, and *The Figures of the American Civil War*, focusing on the remarkable individuals of that period.
The goal of my platforms is to share my passion for history with like-minded individuals. Cheers,
Daz

John Brown's Raid on Harpers Ferry with (Kevin Pawlak)
John Brown's Raid on Harpers Ferry with (Kevin Pawlak)
In this episode of the American Civil War & UK History Podcast, Daz was joined by author and historian Kevin Pawlak to discuss John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry.
John Brown's raid, which took place from October 16 to 18, 1859, was an effort by the abolitionist John Brown to initiate a slave revolt in the Southern states. The plan involved seizing the United States arsenal located at Harpers Ferry, Virginia (now part of West Virginia since 1863). This event has often been described as a "dress rehearsal" for or a "tragic prelude" to the American Civil War.
