Reseña del libro "Articles of War (en Inglés)"

The American Civil War is filled with fascinating characters. This collection of biographical essays on the “winners and losers” of the Civil War covers some of the most intriguing: Ulysses S. Grant, George B. McClellan, Sam Houston, Albert Sidney Johnston, Nathan Bedford Forrest, and William Clarke Quantrill, to name just a few.
In Articles of War you’ll discover:
Some Winners
Ulysses S. Grant, whose brilliant Vicksburg Campaign was a model of military strategyJohn A. “Black Jack” Logan, one of the war’s few successful political generalsNathan Bedford Forrest, a natural military genius despite his “Lost Cause”Some Losers
George B. McClellan, whose lack of eagerness cost the Union two opportunities to win the warEarl Van Dorn, a victim of sheer bad luckTheophilus H. Holmes, the little-known incompetent, called “granny Holmes” by his own menSome Winners Who Became Losers
Albert Sidney Johnston, the Confederacy’s “General Who Might Have Been”Leonidas Polk, whose initial good luck eventually ran outWilliam Clarke Quantrill, a winner in death but a loser in lifeAnd Some Losers Who Became Winners
Sam Houston, who, had he lived longer, could have been a winner in TexasWilliam Tecumseh Sherman, an exceptional man; a capable, but flawed, commander
