Is On To Richmond a good place to start if I've never played GCACW?

I have not played On To Richmond so I can't comment one way or the other.  However, I will say that I've read and heard from a few people that the latest game in the series, Hood Strikes North, is a good way to get into the series as it is a single map game with only 2 counter sheets I believe. That being said there are a limit on the number of scenarios. When I first got into the system I took the advice of several people to get Roads to Gettysburg II as the amount of content in one box was the best bang for the buck.

I've heard the same about Hood Strikes North.
