    Am looking forward to the next episode. Love ‘COPPER’ as I am a Union Civil War reenactor .

  • You’re still getting it wrong

    You guys don’t just need a historian, you need a geographer. No, wait. You don’t need any kind of expert for this. You just need a map. Sandusky, OH is nowhere near the Ohio River, so how were people rowed across the Ohio River to see the prisoners in Sandusky? Wrong river, or wrong town. Johnson’s Island is in Sandusky Bay, on Lake Erie!

      Well, yes … I thought this was another fine episode, with perceptive performances and an historically plausible plotline about the (real) incendiary attack on NYC. I did catch the Sandusky boo-boo, which was entirely avoidable. However, the Confederate agent’s description of life there may not have been accurate. The prisoners, mostly officers, were properly fed and housed (in barracks, not tents), though some suffered from the cold to which they were not accustomed. His description sounds more like Andersonville – a fictional former prisoner of which camp is a featured character on a certain post-Civil War costume drama on another network. I’m not troubled by the exaggeration of camp conditions in this script: it’d be understandable since the Rebel agent was trying to recruit Morehouse.
