Publisher Description: Captains of the Civil War is a classic American Civil War history text by William Wood. The guns that thundered round Fort Sumter began the third and greatest modern civil war fought by English-speaking people. This American Civil War was quite as full of politics as were the other two--the War of the American Revolution and that of Puritan and Cavalier. But, though the present Chronicle never ignores the vital correlations between statesmen and commanders, it is a book of warriors, through and through. |
