Product Description: The Richmond campaign of April-July 1862 ranks as one of the most important military operations of the first years of the American Civil War. Key political, diplomatic, social, and military issues were at stake as Robert E. Lee and George B. McClellan faced off on the peninsula between the York and James Rivers. The climactic clash came on June 26-July 1 in what became known as the Seven Days battles, when Lee, newly appointed as commander of the Confederate forces, aggressively attacked the Union army. Casualties for the entire campaign exceeded 50,000, more than 35,000 of whom fell during the Seven Days. This book offers nine essays in which well-known Civil War historians explore questions regarding high command, strategy and tactics, the effects of the fighting upon politics and society both North and South, and the ways in which emancipation figured in the campaign. The authors have consulted previously untapped manuscript sources and reinterpreted more familiar evidence, sometimes focusing closely on the fighting around Richmond and sometimes looking more broadly at the background and consequences of the campaign.

Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. First Edition, First Printing. A remarkably intimate collection of wartime letters from Captain Ujanirtus 'Ugie' Allen of the 21st Georgia Volunteer Infantry. Writing to his wife during the pivotal campaigns of 1861 and 1862, Allen provides a vivid, first-hand account of life under Thomas J. 'Stonewall' Jackson. These letters offer a rare dual perspective: the grueling reality of company-grade leadership and the domestic anxieties of a Georgia farmer. Edited with extensive scholarly annotations and maps, this volume is a 'Gift Quality' First Printing of an essential primary source for the study of the Army of Northern Virginia. KEY FEATURES +++ Primary Source: Contemporary letters written during the heat of the conflict, rather than post-war reminiscences. +++ Imprint: Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 1998. [First Edition / First Printing]. +++ Visuals: Illustrated with half-tone photographs and 15 detailed line maps of Jackson's movements. +++ Scholarly Value: Includes a comprehensive index identifying every individual mentioned in Allen's correspondence. +++ Series: Part of the respected LSU Press 'Voices of the Civil War' series. CONDITION: Fine in a Fine Dust Jacket -- Gift Quality. The book is without flawtight, square, and pristine. The dust jacket is crisp and bright. An unread copy suitable for a serious collector or as a gift. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -- Ujanirtus Allen was an exceptionally discerning observer. His letters are prized by historians for their "gossipy" but tactically sharp characterizations of everyone from lowly privates to Robert E. Lee. Because Allen served as a company-grade officer, his correspondence provides a rare look at the administrative and leadership burdens of the men responsible for the daily survival of the Confederate infantry. His death at 23, shortly after the letters end, adds a tragic, poignant weight to this record of Jackson's legendary Valley Campaign. SUBJECTS: American Civil War, Stonewall Jackson, Georgia 21st Infantry, Military Correspondence, Army of Northern Virginia, Confederate Officers, Military History, Letters/Memoirs, First Edition, Biography.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Civil War Writing is a collection of new essays that focus on the most significant writing about the American Civil War by participants who lived through it, whether as civilians or combatants, southerners or northerners, women or men, blacks or whites. Collectively, as contributors show, these writings have sustained their influence over generations and include histories, memoirs, journals, novels, and one literary falsehood posing as an autobiographical narrative. Several of the works, such as William Tecumseh Sherman's memoirs or Mary Chesnut's diary, are familiar to scholars, but other accounts, including Charlotte Forten's diary and Loreta Velasquez's memoir, offer new material to even the most omnivorous Civil War reader. In all cases, a deeper look at these writings reveals why they continue to resonate with audiences more than 150 years after the end of the conflict. As supporting evidence for historical and biographical narratives and as deliberately designed communications, the writings discussed in this collection demonstrate considerable value. Whether exploring the differences among drafts and editions, listening closely to fluctuations in tone or voice, or tracing responses in private correspondence or published reviews, the essayists examine how authors wrote to different audiences and out of different motives, creating a complex literary record that offers rich potential for continuing evaluation of the country's greatest national trauma. Overall, the essays in Civil War Writing underscore how participants employed various literary forms to record, describe, and explain aspects and episodes of a conflict that assumed proportions none of them imagined possible at the outset. A collection of essays that focus on the most significant writing about the American Civil War by participants who lived through it, whether as civilians or combatants, southerners or northerners, women or men, blacks or whites. Collectively, as contributors show, these writings have sustained their influence over generations. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
