From the Publisher

This third slim history in a four-volume Civil War set, well illustrated in color and b&w, examines the geographical, logistical, and strategic factors that shaped fighting in the period between 1861 and July 1863. It covers Grant's important capture of rebel positions before marching South to win the battle of Shiloh, the campaigns of Albert Sidney Johnston<-->"the pride of the Confederacy"<-->and the siege of Vicksburg, as well as events in the world outside the war. The author is a historian affiliated with Florida State U. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
