Confederate Military History is a 12-volume series of books written and/or edited by former Confederate general Clement A. Evans that deals with specific topics related to the military personalities, places, battles, and campaigns in various Southern United States, including those of the Confederacy.
Written with a heavy Southern slant, the articles that comprise the compendium deal with the famous events of the war. This account is of the Maryland Campaign of September 1862, which culminated with General George McClellan’s Army of the Potomac clashing with General Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia along Antietam Creek outside of Sharpsburg on September 17, 1862. The Battle of Antietam would prove to be the bloodiest day of the Civil War.
This edition of the Confederate Military History’s The Maryland Campaign Against McClellan is specially formatted with images of Lee, Stonewall Jackson, James Longstreet, and maps and pictures of the Battle of Antietam.
