Book Description:
This introduction to the Civil War combines new analytical arguments with a readable narrative of the war. Brian Holden Reid intersperses his chronological description with rich background material on strategy and politics. He highlights the similarities with Napoleonic warfare, arguing that despite its length, by the standards of its time the Civil War ended with great efficiency. He also emphasizes the connections between military and political affairs and assesses the extent to which military strategy was a direct response to political pressures. He reveals that despite its reputation the North's strategy was little different from the South's, with the prime difference being the North's greater resources. Featuring an up to date synthesis of current research, this new volume in the Modern Wars series will prove invaluable to anyone studying the Civil War.
