GDG- Balls Bluff

[John Leo]

HI Folks,

      Balls Bluff is little known outside of Northern, Virginia, in fact
Leesburg itself may be the only place where the name is generally
known.

      But I consider the masacre at Balls Bluff to be one of the most
consequential battles of the entire Civil War --- This battle gave us
the Congressional Committee on the Conduct of the War
which terrorized every Federal decision throughout the war.

Just a thought,

John  Leo
