Colonel Rogers' study of the equipment, organization and method of fighting of the Civil War armies has been unavailable for some years. Colonel Rogers not only drew upon his experience as a decorated British Army officer to take a fresh look at the structure of the Northern and Southern armies and select representative actions, but he made often surprising use of eyewitness accounts by European observers of Civil War organization, unit capabilities and actions.

Lincoln's Ladies attempts to answer the questions of how he was affected by the women in his life and how he affected them.

The Battle of Gettysburg: A History of the Civil War in America
ISBN: 9781582180656 / Angielski / Miękka / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The battle of Gettysburg was undoubtedly one of the greatest conflicts of modern times, not only from the number of combatants engaged and the desperate nature of the struggle, but because on the now classic heights of Cemetery Ridge, Culp's Hill, and the Round Tops the future of the American Republic, for weal or for woe, was fought and won on those memorable July days. As decisive in its character and far-reaching results as the battle of Waterloo like it, it has been the subject of endless controversy and military criticism, and has brought forth a multitude of books, pamphlets, and...

The Genesis of the Civil War: The Story of Sumter, 1860-61
ISBN: 9781582181127 / Angielski / Miękka / 520 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A tragic story is easily told. Battle pictures are not hard to paint with words or brush. It is more difficult to trace with accuracy the beginning of revolutionary movements, for these are from their very nature hidden from the common view, often more carefully concealed in proportion to their importance.
In these pages, Crawford unfolds the story of those events that led to the national struggle between the North and the South in the war for the union of the States. As the medical officer of Fort Moultrie and Fort Sumter, Crawford worked closely with Major Robert Anderson and was a part... A tragic story is easily told.

Union soldiers captured Keiley when Generals Gillmore and Kautz were sent to capture Petersburg, and destroy the railroad and common bridges across the Appomatox in June of 1864. Spawned by false depictions of the character of people from the south by the northern press, Keiley revised his original story in an effort to portray the atrocities committed against the people of the southern states by the Union armies in the name of...

Lafayette of the South: Prince Camille de Polignac and the American Civil War
ISBN: 9781585441037 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The remarkable Confederate career of Prince Camille de Polignac--French aristocrat, professional military man, and solider of fortune-has gone largely unnoticed because most of his service occurred in the relatively neglected western theater of the American Civil war.
While in Louisiana in early 1863, after serving under Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard and Gen. Braxton Bragg, newly promoted Brigadier General Polignac took over a brigade of unruly Texans. In many ways it was a last chance for both Polignac and the brigade. Lieutenant General Richard Taylor, disgusted with the insubordinate Texans,...

For ten years the Cleveland Browns compiled a better record and won more championships than any team in pro football history.

Most important among his innovations was the leading role the franchise played in the integration of pro sports. While much of their competition continued with the...

Great friendship existed between the United States and Imperial Russia during the nineteenth century. The Old World Russian autocracy supported the young New World democracy because of the emerging U.S. role as a bulwark against Great Britain's ambitions, in Asia and in the North Pacific Ocean region especially. In fact, when the American Civil War threatened to divide the United States, Russia alone among the European great powers gave no aid or comfort to the seceding states.
