In this unique examination of Civil War leadership, W. J. Wood
looks at the tactical and strategic problems that threatened to
overwhelm untried Civil War generals and the pragmatic strategies,
born of necessity, that they developed to solve them. Focusing on
three decisive battles involving six generals, Wood provides the
background necessary to understand the problems confronting
commanders on both sides of the war, then looks at the campaign of
Cedar Mountain, directed by Stonewall Jackson and Nathaniel Banks
the battle of Chickamauga, where Confederate Army leader Braxton
Bragg and Union General William Rosecrans faced each other the
battle of Nashville, where Jon Bell Hood led his Southern troops
against George H. Thomas and his Union army. Deftly describing the
art of war these men developed, an art that provides paradigms for
military leaders to this day, Wood demonstrate why Civil War
remains a topic of never-diminishing interest.
