Shiloh and the western campaign of 1862 / by O. Edward Cunningham ; edited by Gary D. Joiner and Timothy B. Smith.

Cunningham, Edward, 1940- (Author). Joiner, Gary D. (Added Author). Smith, Timothy B., 1974- (Added Author).

Summary:

The bloody and decisive two-day battle of Shiloh (April 6-7, 1862) changed the entire course of the American Civil War. The stunning Northern victory thrust Union commander Ulysses S. Grant into the national spotlight, claimed the life of Confederate commander Albert S. Johnston, and forever buried the notion that the Civil War would be a short conflict. Shiloh was one of the bloodiest battles of the entire war, with nearly 24,000 men killed, wounded, and missing. - Publisher.
