A propos de cet article

vi, [2]m 372 pages. Endpaper map. Bibliography. Notes. Index. The dust jacket is in a plastic sleeve and has wear, tears, and soiling. Tape marks on endpapers. Bookplate on fep verso. Bruce Catton's classic study of General George B. McClellan and the early Army of the Potomac. Charles Bruce Catton (October 9, 1899 August 28, 1978) was an American historian and journalist who wrote books concerning the American Civil War. As a narrative historian, Catton specialized in history featuring interesting characters and historical vignettes, in addition to the basic facts, dates, and analyses. His books were well researched and included footnotes. He won the Pulitzer Prize for History and the National Book Award for Nonfiction in 1954 for his book A Stillness at Appomattox (1953), a study of the final campaign of the war in Virginia and third book in his Army of the Potomac trilogy Derived from a Kirkus review: In vivid detail is told the story of the Army of the Potomac during the years- 1861-62, when it was under the command of the young General, George B. McClellan. Here are the Peninsula Campaign, Second Bull Run, the miracle of finding Lee's orders which led seemingly to sure victory at Antietam but turned instead into a massacre. This is a more balanced appraisal of McClellan than most. Treasure trove for the strategy students of the Civil War period, with some fresh angles on this segment of the war. This will provide military technicians with new battlegrounds to explore. …
