Most of the Civil War was fought on Southern soil. The responsibility for defending the Confederacy rested with two great military forces. One of these armies defended the heartland of the Confederacy - a vital area that included the state of Tennessee and large portions of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, and Kentucky. Army of the Heartland is the story of that army. It details obstacles this army faced, including ineffective leadership and conflicts between leaders. Connelly also analyzes the impact of each successive commander of the army.
