Description

Since October 2004, host Gerry Prokopowicz (East Carolina University history professor) has held weekly in-depth conversations about Civil War history with various historians, authors, curators, artists and other people whose work is of interest to students of the Civil War era. Guests have included James McPherson, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Gary Gallagher, Caroline Janney, Peter Carmichael, Carol Reardon, and many others. Although the show is named "talk radio," it has little in common with traditional talk radio, in that the guests do most of the talking, on subjects of their choosing. There's no ranting by the host, and no callers. Lists and links to all previous episodes can be found at www.impedimentsofwar.org, along with titles of upcoming episodes.
