Citizens of a Stolen Land: A Ho-Chunk History of the Nineteenth-Century United States
ISBN: 9781469673592 / Angielski / Twarda / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This concise and revealing history reconsiders the Civil War era by centering one Native American tribe's encounter with citizenship. In 1837, eleven years before Wisconsin's admission as a state, representatives of the Ho-Chunk people yielded under immense duress and signed a treaty that ceded their remaining ancestral lands to the U.S. government.

Others lived as outlaws,...

Sixty years after the Civil War, the 121st New York Volunteers (Upton's Regulars) finally published a history of their regiment.

Sand, Science, and the Civil War: Sedimentary Geology and Combat
ISBN: 9780820363523 / Angielski / Twarda / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The influence of sedimentary geology on the strategy, combat, and tactics of the American Civil War is a subject that has been neglected by military historians. Sedimentary geology influenced everything from the nature of the landscape (flat vs. rolling terrain) to the effectiveness of the weapons (a single grain of sand can render a rifle musket as useless as a club). Sand, Science, and the Civil War investigates the role of sedimentary geology on the campaigns and battles of the Civil War on multiple scales, with a special emphasis on the fighting along the coastlines. At the start of the...

Wars Civil and Great: The American Experience in the Civil War and World War I
ISBN: 9780700635375 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Although the Civil War and the Great War were fought only fifty years apart, the perceived time between these two cataclysmic events seems far longer in popular American memory: the Civil War was the centerpiece of the nineteenth century and lies deep in America’s past whereas World War I was a modern prelude to World War II, a conflict still in living memory. Wars Civil and Great breaks down these barriers of time and memory and shows how close and how similar these two conflicts really were in the American experience. Setting both wars in the long nineteenth century, the authors of this...

Grant\'s Lieutenants: From Cairo to Vicksburg
ISBN: 9780700635252 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ulysses S. Grant did more than any other single Union general to secure the North’s victory in the Civil War, but he did not achieve that victory alone.

Steven Woodworth and his fellow authors provide ample evidence for that in this first of a two-volume reassessment of Grant’s officer corps from Cairo to Appomattox.Covering the war’s western theater through July 1863, Woodworth et al. highlight the character and accomplishments of these men and...
