About this listen
Hello and welcome to Civil War Stories. I'm your host, Steve Matthews. Today we're going to explore one of the most innovative yet overlooked aspects of the American Civil War - the Union Army Balloon Corps and the remarkable story of the man who pioneered aerial reconnaissance for the military. So settle in as we journey back to 1861, when a determined aeronaut named Thaddeus Lowe convinced the United States Army to literally rise above the battlefield and see war from an entirely new perspective.
