Reader Reviews
Well, the folks at McWhiney Foundation Press have done it again! This company is determined to make Civil War history accessible and interesting to the greatest number of readers through their Civil War Campaigns and Commanders series. This book is absolutely no exception. Stephen Dossman has written a fast-paced, succinct history of the Confederate campaign to capture Corinth, Mississippi in the fall of 1862, and weaves a masterful tale of heroism, blunder, and foolhardiness. I finished the book amazed at what a tough and scrappy action the battles of Iuka and Corinth (not to mention Davis Bridge) really were. Perhaps the most impressive thing about this book, though, is that Dossman clearly advances his thesis that this campaign doomed the Confederates to lose control of the Mississippi. The book is worth the price to examine that argument alone. Priced right, fully footnoted, and full of information, this book should appeal to enthusiasts and scholars alike, as well as fans of good history well told. I look forward to reading more book by this author.
