A renowned military historian and frequent television commenter brings to life the generalship of the North during the Civil War in sparkling, information-filled vignettes. For both the Civil War completist and the general reader!
Anyone acquainted with the American Civil War will readily recognize the names of the Union's most prominent generals. Ulysses S. Grant. William Tecumseh Sherman. George McClennan. These men have long been lionized as fearless commanders and genius tacticians. Yet few have heard of the hundreds of generals who led under and alongside them. Men whose battlefield resolve spurred the Union through four years of the bloodiest combat Americans have ever faced.
In The Encyclopedia of Union Generals, veteran Civil War historian, Samuel W. Mitcham, documents the lives of every Union general from birth to death, highlighting their unique contributions to the battlefield and bringing their personal triumphs and tragedies to life.
Packed with photos and historical briefings, The Encyclopedia of Union Generals belongs on the shelf of every Civil War historian, and preserves in words the legacies once carved in stone.
