Publisher Description:
This depiction of the fiercest battles ever fought on American soil presents the Civil War as you've never seen it before - with a provocative re-examination of the military genius of Robert E. Lee, and a critical, pragmatic re-evaluation of the performance of the generals who led the armies of both South and North. Each battle involving the Army of Northern Virginia - the principal force of the Confederate military - is recreated in detail, paying special attention to the strategies and tactics employed by the commanders on both sides. Robert E. Lee receives full credit for both his outstanding defensive maneuvers and for his remarkable achievement in holding together a disorganized and often under-equipped Confederate army for three grueling years. But, Alexander also demonstrates how Lee's rigid belief in launching large-scale attacks on Union armies led inevitably to the Confederacy's defeat.
