On this episode I interviewed Michael Clarke and Craig Schneider, of the Liberty Rifles, to discuss their living history organization that strives to accurately portray soldier life in the American Civil War. Many of their events feature recreations of full-scale regiments and we deep-dive into the logistics, efforts and expectation behind organizing their events.
