Everyone has a different approachto reading the History of this Battle, and 
i have tried them all. My newest, and current course is to read Coddington 
( no doubt, the best overall study ), until he is finished with Day One, and 
then put it aside, and read the Day One of Pfanz, then back to Coddington 
thru Day Two, and then go to Pfanz , Day Two, then Coddington again, thru 
Day Three. Then finally finish up with Wert for Day three, and Pfanz on 
Cemetary, and Culp's Hill..
This mayy all sound very confusinf, but after struggling, and getting more, 
and more confused over all the various aspects of this Battle, I've decided 
that this is the best course to try to clear up, exactly who did what to 
whom.
                                                Good Luck,
                                                      Ed O.
PS - I'll have a new course of study ready by next year.
