pp 338, Paperback in good condition; Clean pages; Light edgewear; sticker on back cover; Creased SpineThis vivid depiction of the fiercest battles ever fought on American soils presents the Civil War as you've never seen it before, with a provocative re-examination of the performance of the generals who led the armies of both the north and the south. Military strategist and historian Bevin Alexander takes to behind the battle lines into the generals camps, offering a gripping look at the uncertainties, the bravado, and the often misguided decisions of these West Point trained officers as they struggles ti adapt traditional strategies to a new era of warfare. Robert E Lee, the Souths most revered military leader, receives full credit for both his outstanding defensive maneuvers and for his remarkable achievements in holding together a disorganized and often under equipped Confederate Army. But, Alexander also demonstrates how Lee's rigid beliefs in launching large scale attacks on Union armies led inevitably to the confederacy's defeat. Title: Robert E.
