Get There Firstest with the Mostest

Get There Firstest with the Mostest

June 10, 1864 more than 8,000 Union troops came out of Memphis to engage Nathan Bedford Forrest’s 3,400 Confederate calvary force at Brice’s Crossroads, near Baldwyn, Tennessee. General Sherman believed Forrest to be one of the best commanders on either side, and sought to prevent him from hindering his now infamous March to the Sea. At the end of the day, Forrest’s troops had captured more than 1,600 prisoners of war, 18 artillery pieces, and wagons loaded with supplies—adding another stunning victory to his sterling record.

One of the most successful and controversial figures in the war, Forrest was once asked the key to his success in battle. His response was said to have been “get there firstest with the mostest”!

When you listen to Bill Potter’s messages, you suddenly find yourself in the midst of the battle, the joys of victory on the field, and the sorrows of a family’s sacrifices. The world tries to rewrite history to write God out of the picture but, as Christians, we are to be the bearers of His light in the darkness, which is exactly what Landmark Events delivers!” —Gena B.
