And Keep Moving on: The Virginia Campaign, May-June 1864
ISBN: 9780803271197 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. And Keep Moving On is the first book to see the Virginia campaign of spring 1864 as Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee saw it: a single, massive operation stretching hundreds of miles. The story of the campaign is also the story of the demise of two great armies. The scale of casualties and human suffering that the campaign inflicted makes it unique in U.S. history. Mark Grimsley's study, however, is not just another battle book. Grimsley places the campaign in the political context of the 1864 presidential election; appraises the motivation of soldiers; appreciates the impact of the North's...

The Hard Hand of War: Union Military Policy Toward Southern Civilians, 1861-1865
ISBN: 9780521462570 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Hard Hand of War explores the Union army's policy of destructive attacks upon Southern property and civilian morale--how it evolved, what it was like in practice. From an initial policy of deliberate restraint, extending even to the active protection of Southerners' property and constitutional rights, Union armies gradually adopted measures that were expressly intended to demoralize Southern civilians and to ruin the Confederate economy. Yet the ultimate "hard war" policy was far from the indiscriminate fury of legend. Union policy makers promoted a program of directed severity, and...

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...

Civilians in the Path of War
ISBN: 9780803220652 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "War," wrote Gen. William T. Sherman, "is cruelty, and you cannot refine it." Throughout history, noncombatants have always been among the victims of war's violence. In this book, nine distinguished historians examine twenty-five hundred years of human conflicts and their varied impacts on civilian society. Each case study examines not only what military forces did to noncombatants in the area of their operations, but why they did it and how they justified their actions. The focus, however, remains firmly on the practical realities of war, not on normative theories or the prescriptions of the...
