Omschrijving
General John Bell Hood tried everything he could: Surprise attack. Flanking march. Cavalry raid into the enemy's rear lines. Simply enduring his opponent's semi-siege of the city. But nothing he tried worked.
An excellent analysis of the Atlanta campaign, from Dalton to Jonesboro, with an explanation of the mistakes General Joe Johnston made that allowed Sherman to succeed.
Davis provides a ringing defense of General John Bell Hood who, he says, got a bum rap in the fall of Atlanta to Sherman's relentless pressure on the Confederate defenders.
Demolishes old myths and replaces them with new truths, and does so in a fashion that is as hard-hitting as a 20-pounder Parrott shell striking its target. To be read with profit and joy.
A lively, virgorously argued study. Steve Davis contends that William T. Sherman's confident handling of a numerically superior force against the faltering Joseph E. Johnston rendered Union success inevitable. Davis's assessments of Sherman, Johnston, and John Bell Hood are sure to spark controversy, but they cannot be ignored.
A first-rate tactical study of a pivotal Civil War battle. Steve Davis's favorable evaluation of John Bell Hood's performance at Atlanta and his condemnation of Joe Johnston will not please all readers, but it will certainly cause them to take another look at this crucial military engagement.
Steve Davis has produced a book that will add much to the debate now raging about the conduct of the war in the crucial Western theater. Agree or disagree, you'll have to take his ideas into account.
