Let Us Have Peace: Ulysses S. Grant and the Politics of War and Reconstruction, 1861-1868
ISBN: 9780807846292 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 359 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Historians have traditionally drawn distinctions between Ulysses S. Grant's military and political careers. In Let Us Have Peace, Brooks Simpson questions such distinctions and offers a new understanding of this often enigmatic leader. He argues that during the 1860s Grant was both soldier and politician, for military and civil policy were inevitably intertwined during the Civil War and Reconstruction era. According to Simpson, Grant instinctively understood that war was 'politics by other means.' Moreover, he realized that civil wars presented special challenges: reconciliation, not...

The Civil War in the East: Struggle, Stalemate, and Victory
ISBN: 9781612346281 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For all the literature about Civil War military operations and leadership, precious little has been written about strategy, particularly in the eastern theater. The Civil War in the East takes a fresh look at military operations in this sector and the assumptions that shaped them.With opposing capitals barely a hundred miles apart and with the Chesapeake Bay Tidewater area offering Union generals the same sorts of opportunities that Confederate leaders sought in the Shenandoah Valley, geography shaped military operations in fundamental ways. Presidents, politicians, and the press...

The Reconstruction Presidents
ISBN: 9780700608966 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. During and after the Civil War, four presidents faced the challenge of reuniting the nation and of providing justice for black Americans--and of achieving a balance between those goals. This first book to collectively examine the Reconstruction policies of Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson, Ulysses S. Grant, and Rutherford B. Hayes reveals how they confronted and responded to the complex issues presented during that contested era in American politics. Brooks Simpson examines the policies of each administration in depth and evaluates them in terms of their political, social, and...

The Civil War in the East: Struggle, Stalemate, and Victory
ISBN: 9780275991616 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For all the literature about Civil War military operations and leadership, precious little has been written about strategy, particularly in what has become known as the eastern theater. Yet it is in this theater where the interaction of geography and logistics, politics and public opinion, battlefront and home front, and the conduct of military operations and civil-military relations can be highlighted in sharp relief. With opposing capitals barely 100 miles apart and with the Chesapeake Bay/tidewater area offering Union generals the same sorts of opportunities sought by Confederate...

Victors in Blue: How Union Generals Fought the Confederates, Battled Each Other, and Won the Civil War
ISBN: 9780700621415 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 374 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Make no mistake, the Confederacy had the will and valor to fight. But the Union had the manpower, the money, the materiel, and, most important, the generals. Although the South had arguably the best commander in the Civil War in Robert E. Lee, the North's full house beat their one-of-a-kind. Flawed individually, the Union's top officers nevertheless proved collectively superior across a diverse array of battlefields and ultimately produced a victory for the Union. Now acclaimed author Albert Castel brings his inimitable style, insight, and wit to a new reconsideration of these generals....

Sherman, Fighting Prophet
ISBN: 9780803279452 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 720 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Sherman's life was a rich and varied tapestry, and Mr. Lewis has put the richness into his book. Not only does he make us understand Sherman, he makes us see again the tremendous, terrible pageant of the Civil War."--New York Times. "This is no ordinary military biography. . . . Lewis's excellent description of the relationship of Grant and Sherman and the meaning of the Union in Sherman's life are highlights which are not easily forgotten."--Civil War History. "The book is beautifully proportioned; the epic tale rumbles on with the inexorability of Sherman's cannon rolling down on Atlanta....

The Collapse of the Confederacy
ISBN: 9780803271036 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 201 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Practically all Civil War historians agree that after the fall of Atlanta in September 1864 and Lincoln's triumphant reelection in November, the South had no remaining chance to make good its independence. Well aware that Appomattox and Durham Station were close at hand, historians have treated the war's final months in a fashion that smacks strongly of denouement: the great, tragic conflict rolls on to its now-certain end. Certain, that is, to us, but deeply uncertain to the millions of Northerners and Southerners who lived through the anxious days of early 1865. The final months of the...

ISBN: 9780803279353 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 371 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The letters of Theodore Lyman, an aide-de-camp to General George Meade, offer a witty and penetrating inside view of the Civil War. Scholar and Boston Brahmin, Lyman volunteered for service following the battle at Gettysburg. From September 1863 to the end of the war, he wrote letters almost daily to his wife. Colonel Lyman s early letters describe life in winter quarters. Those written after General Grant assumes command chronicle the Army of the Potomac s long-awaited move against the Army of Northern Virginia. Lyman covered the field, delivering messages.

America's Civil War
ISBN: 9780882959290 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Such is the continuing volume of work on the Civil War that we are regularly in need of an authoritative and accessible brief synthesis to keep us up to date with this endlessly fascinating subject. Brooks Simpson meets that need for the 1990s in America's Civil War, a wonderful feat of compression in which he addresses all the great issues of the war in 200 pages of clear and readable prose. Rightly, he puts the military history of the conflict at the center of the picture, but he excels in relating the drama of the war itself to the politics of both Union and Confederacy, to the stresses...

Now for the Contest: Coastal and Oceanic Naval Operations in the Civil War
ISBN: 9780803238619 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Now for the Contest tells the story of the Civil War at sea in the context of three campaigns: the blockade of the southern coast, the raiding of Union commerce, and the projection of power ashore. The Civil War at sea was profoundly influenced by innovation and asymmetry both sides embraced innovation, but differences in their resources and their strategic objectives pushed them down different paths. At its peak the Union navy boasted over fifty thousand men and nearly seven hundred ships. The Confederate navy was far smaller, never exceeding some five thousand men, and it numbered...
