Riassunto

No history is more beautifully written than this one covering General Robert E. Lee's last campaign with the Army of Northern Virginia from early May to mid-June of 1864. Here the aging Lee is shown improvising strategy with a brilliance that cannot reduce the hopelessness of his situation. With the ghost of a once great army, he is caught between the overwhelming might of the Union forces and the crippling restrictions of his own government.

Su questo libro

L'autore:

Lee's Last Campaign is cinematic in its vividness and immediacy, a triumph of style and substance by Clifford Dowdey, the author of The Seven Days: The Emergence of Lee (1964), also reprinted as a Bison Book. Robert K. Krick, the author of Stonewall Jackson at Cedar Mountain (1990), has written an introduction for both books.
