| Description: |
This is the first volume in a four-book series telling the bloody story of a war that divided a nation. It traces the famous Stonewall Jackson's Shenandoah Valley campaign, and follows Confederate fortunes to one of the high points of the war following the battle of Fredericksburg. |
| Synopsis: |
The United States saw long-simmering sectional tensions erupt into fighting at Fort Sumter, South Carolina, in April 1861, beginning what would become the most cataclysmic military struggle in the western world between Waterloo and the First World War. This volume focuses on events in the Virginia theater during the conflict's first two years, highlighting Union and Confederate strengths and weaknesses, leadership and strategy on each side, and the ways in which events on the battlefield influenced politics, diplomacy, and debates about emancipation. Osprey Essential Histories are complete yet concise studies of each major conflict in history. |
