This is about the Civil War battle at Stones River, where both the Union and Confederate armies lost over one-quarter of their forces in battle casualties. The Confederacy's defeat at Stones River unleashed a wave of dissension that crippled the army's high command and ultimately closed Tennessee to the South for two years. The book's author, Cozzens, lets the men who fought the battle speak for themselves, through letters, diaries, memoirs, and battlefield communications. An excellent historical story-perfect for Civil War buffs. Note: We are a well-established, well-respected, ethical book dealer in business since 1991.
