St. Albans Story on TRAVEL Channel
I am glad I didn't know about this program in advance. TRAVEL Channel botched it from the beginning. It was a 15 minutes segment of the I hour "Mysteries in the Museum" I'm glad I didn't recommend it to you. It was the story of the St. Albans Raiders.
To begin with, the Confederate Soldiers wore handkerchiefs tied across their face like common thieves. No one was in Uniform. They did get Bennett Young's name correct, but they didn't name anyone else. They made a big thing about the "Greek Fire". They showed Confederate's with Whiskey Bottles half full of Gasoline and a long rag hanging out of the top, that they lite . The program said that this failed BECAUSE it was raining and the buildings were all wet. The Confederates were run out of town, and were chased into Canada, but they were all captured.
If that's their best - they won't have watchers very long. I have no idea about what they wanted to accomplish.
