- Garry Adelman of the American Battlefield Trust gives a deep dive into the early days of war photography, and details how the end of the Civil War was photographed in Richmond, Viriginia.
Please keep America’s history alive. Thank you for your great work.
An Amazing in-depth look at civil war photography. Most I’ve never seen before. Thanks for pointing out parts of the photos that your eye doesn’t normally focus on.
Great pictures! I’ve lived in Richmond my whole life and it’s super cool to see the area as it was back then :)
A really great presentation by you and the rest of the team. Outstanding.
This was fantastic!!! Would love to see more programs like this!
Fascinating. Can’t wait to go back to the States to see more battlefield sites. These photos take you there! Thanks Garry and team. Great stuff!
I pass most of these buildings going to work every day. Keep up the good work.
Terrific, Thanks.
From Australia. 🇦🇺
This is one of Gary's best videos. There is a lot to learn from this piece. Plus, it lets us know Gary a bit better. Gary's handling of his dog barking makes us feel like we are right in the room with him. It was a very human and quite comforting look at who Gary is. Marvelous.

Gary. You are the most awesome and inspiring person I’ve ever come across. Your knowledge on all facets of the war is totally way above anybody else
The clarity of the photos and explanation of the events are amazing
I’ve been to Richmond three times and have learned so much
My favourite place is Hollywood cemtry and the White House
I did notice there appear to be a number of new gravestones which are all white stone in the confederate soldiers section. Is this right
However my main disappointment is the grave to Longstreets three children which is leaning over and appears to be breaking such a pity.
Also Monument avenue which has been destroyed since I was last year. Is there anything left of the monuments or are the whole gone
Best are the then and now pics
Btw I have over three hundred books periodicals maps etc thanks to you
Viv. From Johannesburg. S Africa again
I find this level of technology fascinating.
This was a fantastic presentation. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Awesome! More please!
Wow I was blown away with the live action film clips.The 360 capability is a game changer and the slightly blured tone of the
footage is outstanding.
I have a new favorite U-tube subscription...
Outstanding chanell !
One of the best installments! Good work!
I really hope you plan on doing this sort of thing again, I have always studied over civil war photography and can't get enough.
As usual... an outstanding video progrqm
Priceless. Thank you gentlemen.
Wonderful!
the picture of Newton, Baldy Smith and Hancock in one picture is fantastic
That Rocked!
Cold Harbor was lodging without hot meals. Thus its name.
Love this stuff! Thanks so much.
There is no way Gary drinks decaffeinated coffee, lol. Great presentation!°
Yeah,he's amped up on somepin' !!!
He does! I can confirm 😆
It's called enthusiasm for the subject and love of what you do. Most people should be so lucky as to enjoy their vocation as Garry obviously does. Yes, he is shot out of a cannon everyday he lives with the energy of a 4 year old child. I'm frankly jealous. I think the man is a national treasure.
The world would be a better place if everyone had Gary’s excitement and enthusiasm, I’ve read comments of people being mean about it lol how pathetic would you have to be for his exitement to annoy you ?
Excellent presentation
Garry is the best!
That's was cool. So sad what they have done to my city one of the most beautiful city's been trashed
Wonderful presentation!
As President of the Cotton Pickin' Society, I sure do appreciate your fine efforts.
Yellow Tavern is mostly gone underneath the bypass around Richmond.
Pretty cool
I went to Jonesboro once to see Tara. I found out that it wasn't a real plantation 🤦 Nice museum though, can't be disappointed with that. In Atlanta I stayed at the Peach Tree Inn because it was supposed to be haunted, but didn't see a ghost 👻
SAVE OUR BATTLEFIELDS AMERICA 🇺🇸
Actually, just about any large format camera will do a better job of capturing all the detail due to the size of the negative. Modern cameras with modern lenses exposing the same size negatives would do a far better job. Love the photo's and information, just picking on that one comment you made early in the video.
Gary's dog is as hyper as he is.
Hey!
If I'd fought for the Southerners back then, it would've been Wash D.C. that got torched ... and not Richmond.
I just don't understand why would the American confederates, upon fleeing Richmond, would destroy and set the town and bridges on fire?
look up tartaria n the mud flood all history is fake Morocco sold America to the 🤥🦎 in 1777 the 4 of July for a reason think of the name fir a sec july dec mean 10 but dec the 12 months....
Tobacco and cotton warehouses were set on fire to keep the contents from falling to the Yankees. The fire spread to the state armory which exploded sending flaming debris everywhere. High winds then spread fire throughout the downtown, destroying nearly 1,000 buildings.
torpid liver
Black people in those pictures were dressed pretty good. I think some of those activist push a narrative that they were treated terribly .
Try it on for a few weeks and see how you like it!
@@lesc3969I would love it. They even had shoes . Some of the soldiers didn’t have shoes or they wore them out.
I absolutely love your videos. I visited Gettysburg in October for the first time and will be visiting again this summer!
They will be embarking on a restoration project of Little Round Top some time later in the year, so definitely don't delay!
