Longstreet to the Rescue: The Battle of the Wilderness and the Wounding of James Longstreet
Gettysburg Ranger Karlton Smith offers a fascinating look at one of the pivotal moments of the 1864 Overland Campaign. On the morning of May 6, 1864, the second day of the battle of the Wilderness, Gen. Robert E. Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia were on the verge of collapse. At the critical moment, Lt. Gen. James Longstreet and his First Corps came swinging onto the field "like a fine lady at a ball." Ranger Smith examines the impact of Longstreet's attack on the morning of May 6, the circumstances surrounding Longstreet's wounding, and what the Confederates thought could have happened if Longstreet had not been wounded.
