Battle
of Glorieta Pass: A Gettysburg in the West
by John Taylor, Thomas S. Edrington
Book Description: Following the third day of the Battle of Glorieta
Pass, the Texans realized their predicament: "Here we are between two armies,
one double ours and the other four times our number, 1,000 miles from home,
not a wagon, not a dust of flour, not a pound of meat." While the Confederates
had forced a Union retreat on the rocky, forested battlefield around Pigeon's
Ranch, they could not press their advantage.
The loss of 13 Confederate officers and 119 soldiers that day left
them vulnerable, but the most crippling blow had come in the surprise destruction
of all seventy supply wagons at Johnson's Ranch by Colorado Volunteers.
So complete was their devastation that during a truce in the early evening,
the Texans even had to borrow Union shovels to bury their dead.
Edrington and Taylor combine data from records and documents with their
firsthand inspections of the battlefield to reconstruct what happened on
both sides of the line before, during, and after this controversial Civil
War engagement.

New Mexico Campaign
by Martin Hardwick Hall, Jerry Thompson
Now available only from the UNM Press, this long out-of-print and hard-to-find
classic tells the story of the Texas invasion of New Mexico during the
American Civil War. In early 1862, Confederate General Henry Hopkins Sibley
marched thirty-four hundred coarse Texas farmboys, cowhands, and frontiersmen
into New Mexico and up the Rio Grande Valley. Although seriously bloodied,
they repulsed Union troops at the Battle of Valverde. As the poorly supplied
Texans pushed northward, New Mexicans stripped the land bare of food, fodder,
and livestock. East of Santa Fe at Glorieta, Union volunteers defeated
Sibley’s Confederates and burned their quartermaster trains, and the starving
Texans retreated back down the Rio Grande to El Paso. For the UNM Press
edition, Civil War historian Jerry Thompson has corrected the few factual
errors in the original edition and has added a new map.
