In this powerful episode of Stories of the Civil War, host Chris Mowery guides listeners into the heart of a brutal and often overlooked campaign—the Saltville Raid of 1864. What began as a strategic push to cripple the Confederacy’s vital saltworks spiraled into a desperate mountain battle and one of the war’s darkest atrocities.
From the high-stakes Union assault led by “Butcher” Burbridge to the grim aftermath known as the Saltville Massacre—where wounded Black cavalrymen were murdered after the fighting ended—this episode blends vivid storytelling, genealogical insight, and firsthand accounts to reveal how a humble mineral became a matter of life, death, and legacy in the war’s final winter.
Saltville was more than a target—it was a symbol of survival. And what happened there still echoes through the ridges of Appalachia.
