The Civil War tore Maryland in half. Young George Wilson Booth followed the call of the Confederacy and served four years under the banners of the Army of Virginia. During the bright days of the early successes at both Manassas battles and in smaller tussles, Booth saw history being made. Wounded at Greenland Gap, he arrived late at Gettysburg.
