Through the Battlefields in the Wake of Conflict Vol 3
by Benson J. Lossing
One of the most popular historians in the years immediately following
the American Civil War, Benson J. Lossing was virtually forgotten in the
later 20th century ... until the reissue of his three-volume Pictorial
Field Book. Lossing wrote from a relentlessly Unionist point of view, and
his prose effectively conveys the sentiments Northerners felt at the end
of the conflict. The hundreds of maps and illustrations, reminiscent of
those in the 19th-century magazine Harper's Weekly, are a real highlight.
The first book focuses almost exclusively on political affairs, although
it does cover the siege of Fort Sumter and Bull Run; the second two volumes
are full of military action. The Pictorial Field Book is no substitute
for the more scholarly work of James M. McPherson, Bruce Catton, and Shelby
Foote, but it provides a unique period feel that only an author who lived
through the times can offer. For Civil War enthusiasts, it will hold genuine
interest. John J. Miller - Amazon.com

Hurricane
of Fire : The Union Assault on Fort Fisher
by Charles M., III Robinson
In December 1864 and January 1865, Federal forces launched the greatest
amphibious assault the world had yet seen on the Confederate stronghold
of Fort Fisher, near Wilmington, North Carolina. This was the last seaport
available to the South--all of the others had been effectively shut down
by the Union's tight naval blockade. The initial attack was a disaster;
Fort Fisher, built mainly out of beach sand, appeared almost impregnable
against a heavy naval bombardment. When troops finally landed, they were
quickly repelled. A second attempt succeeded and arguably helped deliver
one of the death blows to a quickly fading Confederacy. John J.
