  1. John Adams dies in the Boston Massacre

    John Adams I believe John Adams did have a law office in Boston, it's not outside the realm of possibility that he could have accidentally been killed during the massacre, perhaps trying to bring calm to the mob.
  2. General Burnside Gets His Pontoons On Time

    Early North Anna The lessened numerical disparity plus Jackson and Longstreet's presence would I believe Lee to have his Cannae that he couldn't quite pull off in 1864. I agree with RobertP's assessment that Lee could wreck 3 federal corps completely and put the AOP on the defensive. At this...
  3. General Burnside Gets His Pontoons On Time

    If Burnside were able to surprise Lee and the ANV by crossing the Rappahannock as soon as the AOP reached Falmouth how might Lee react? At that time Fredericksburg was defended by a mere 500 Confederates with much of the ANV between Gordonsville and the Shenandoah Valley, my guess is the ANV...

  9. Johnston Never Wounded, Lee Never Takes Charge

    Davis Just Had a crazy thought, but humor me. How about Davis Riding out during Fair Oaks and taking command himself. The man did like to micromanage things, He would keep Johnston as the figurehead commander for appearances but use his position as commander in chief to actually contol the army...
