Reseña del libro "Lee's Invasion of the North: the Campaign of Antietam (Sharpsburg), 1862, during the American Civil War (en Inglés)"
The defeat of Lee's great advanceThis book, concerning a pivotal campaign of the American Civil War, gathers together numerous accounts by those who were present when these events took place. Robert E Lee's great initiative in 1862, at the head of the Confederate Army, was to invade the northern states to resupply his army and destabilise Union morale. It brought about the Battle of Antietam (Sharpsburg for Confederate forces). The 'Maryland (or Antietam) Campaign' resulted in a repulse of the Confederates by the Union Army of the Potomac under McClellan. Nevertheless, the fighting was hard and bitterly contested. The Battle of Antietam itself is regarded as the bloodiest one-day battle in American history with approaching 23,000 losses to all combatants. The struggles across the infamous 'Corn Field' in that battle have become iconic in American military history. Other famous engagements included the capture of Harper's Ferry by Jackson and the Battle of South Mountain. The contributors to this book range from generals to regimental officers to ordinary soldiers, so the reader is able to understand these events from every perspective. Illustrated with maps and pictures.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
