Lauded for gallantry at Antietam and demoted for insubordination
after Fredericksburg, Major General William "Baldy" Smith remains a
controversial figure of the Civil War. His criticism of the Union
high command made him unpopular with both peers and superiors. Yet
his insight as an officer and an engineer enabled him to offer
effective solutions to challenges faced by fellow generals. In this
first comprehensive biography, Smith emerges as a field commander
with deep concern for his men and a fearless critic of the failures
of the Union generalship, who was recognized for a strategic
perspective that helped save Federal armies.
