The Civil War on Old-Time Radio (Part 7 of 17)
The Army of the Potomac and the Army of Northern Virginia met in battle again and again throughout 1962. It was the battle of Chancellorville, fought from April 30 through May 6, that provided the setting for Stephan Crane’s classic novel about a young soldier who struggles to find the courage to fight. The University Theater adaptation is excellent, featuring a faithful script and many of radio’s finest character actors (such as John Dehner and Parley Baer) as it brings the novel to life.

This is the seventh of 17 episodes from various series that will take us through the Civil War and its immediate post-war legacy. I'll be posting another Civil War episode every three or four weeks.
