GDG- Ewell and the High Ground

[J. David Petruzzi]

>>If Stuart had been with the army, maybe nobody even gets to Gettysburg at
all.   Once Stuart is put with the rest of the army, sooner than was
actually the case, everything changes to the point that not even the battle
itself can be taken as a certainty.

Exactly my point as well, Jim.  During 'what if' scenarios, there seems to
be the assumption that we can change a major portion of history, and assume
that everything else remains as is.  That's why I rarely engage in too much
'what iffing' (hey, a new phrase!) because as I stated in an earlier post,
if you change one event, it's a what if; change two that are dependant on
each other, and it becomes fantasy.
