Gerry's Opening Monologue -
"This is Gerry Prokopowicz, with Civil War Talk Radio,...

…Tonight we're talking about the biggest cavalry raid of the war, not the brief performative cavalry raids of Jeb Stuart, or the long but strategically insignificant raids of John Hunt Morgan, not Grierson's horse soldiers raid. Not even Wilson's giant raid. We're going across the Mississippi to look at Sterling Price’s 1864 epic ride into Missouri, covering more than 1,400 miles and involving more than 40 engagements. Yet largely neglected by Civil War Scholarship. What was he doing there? Was it a raid at all, or something larger? We will seek answers to these questions and more about this dramatic campaign from Professor Kyle Sinisi, author of "The Last Hurrah: Sterling Price’s Missouri Expedition Of 1864." We'll do that tonight on Civil War Talk Radio."
