Land Battles of the Civil War: A Chronology of Engagements East of the Mississippi and North of Florida Book

Filling what he sees as a lapse in the otherwise abundant literature on the US Civil War, Stewart, an investment advisor in Atlanta, Georgia, provides a comprehensive, chronologically arranged description of land battles east of the Mississippi River. He excludes actions in Florida because they had only minimal impact and include few infantry battles, and cavalry actions normally categorized as raids, though he includes full cavalry battles. The maps are from a variety of sources and so use a variety of symbols. The references are extensive and detailed. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
