The American Civil War (2) by Stephen Engle

The American Civil War (2) by Stephen Engle

The American Civil War's vast Western Theater witnessed enormously important military campaigning during the period 1861 - 1863. This book, the third in a four-book series, examines the geographical, logistical, and strategic factors that shaped fighting in this theater of the American Civil War, as well as assessing officers who played key roles. The story is told of Ulysses S Grant's important capture of rebel positions before marching south to win the battle of Shiloh, as well that of Albert Sidney Johnston, the pride of the Confederacy, who received a mortal wound at Shiloh. A facinating study of men and motives in the American Civil War.

Stephen D. Engle is professor of history at Florida Atlantic University. He is the author of many books and articles on the Civil War, particularly the war in the western theater, including biographies of German-American Franz Sigel (Yankee Dutchman, 1993, reprint 1999) and Union General Don Carlos Buell (Most Promising of All, 1999). His forthcoming work. Struggle for the Heartland, a volume in the "Great Campaigns of the Civil War," focuses on the early phase of the Civil War in the West. He has lectured both in the United States and in Germany and is currently engaged in research for a book on Lincoln and the War Governors.
