PREVIEW: #GETTYSBURG: JULY2: STRONGVINCENT LAWRENCECHAMBERLAIN: #2OTHMAINE: From a conversation with author Ronald C. White re his new work, ON GREAT FIELDS: The Life and Unlikely Heroism of Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, about the frantic hours on the second day of the Battle of Gettysburg, July 2, 1863, when the Strong Vincent Brigade rushed to secure the Union left flank on Little Round Top, with Chamberlain's exhausted and undermanned 20th Maine Regiment on the left flank of the whole Union line.  More of this tonight and tomorrow night.
