Volume 6 (like Volume 5), assembled by the acclaimed military historian Peter Cozzens, carries on the tradition of its namesake, offering a dazzling new collection of articles written by military and civilian leaders, North and South, on a broad array of war-related topics. Sifting carefully through reports from newspapers, magazines, personal memoirs, and letters, Peter Cozzens's Volume 6 brings readers more of the best first-person accounts of marches, encampments, skirmishes, and full-blown battles, as seen by participants on both sides of the conflict. Alongside the experiences of lower-ranking officers and enlisted men are accounts from key personalities including General John Gibbon, General John C. Lee, and seven prominent generals from both sides offering views on "why the Confederacy failed." This volume includes one hundred twenty illustrations, including sixteen previously uncollected maps of battlefields, troop movements, and fortifications. - Back cover. 606 $aGenerals$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aGenerals$zUnited States$vBiography 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$xCampaigns 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$vPersonal narratives 615 0$aGenerals$xHistory 615 0$aGenerals 676 $a973.73 701 $aCozzens$b Peter$f1957-$0759717 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963379703321 996 $aBattles and leaders of the Civil War$94365840 997 $aUNINA
