It's never a dull moment at Crossroads Country Store. I am continually encouraged by the sheer number of people from around the country that encourage our work here, but this past week someone didn't like what we had to say.

Episode 19 - A great historical reprint book on General Nathan Bedford Forrest

Forrest has got to be one of my personal favorites! After the war, General Lee was asked who he thought his greatest general was, Lee replied, "Sir, a gentleman I have never had the pleasure to meet, General Nathan Bedford Forrest." In this episode I briefly highlight the man and talk about the incident at Fort Pillow.
