Influence of the Crimean War on the Civil War

History nerds, rejoice! I was honored to be the guest speaker for the Old Baldy Civil War Round Table near Philadelphia, PA, and of course I spoke about my favorite topic: how the Crimean War influenced the Civil War. From McClellan's famous saddle to the battlefield changes brought about by the rifle, I cover most of the big-picture influences that the Crimean War of the 1850s had on the American Civil War in the 1860s.
