"Challenges of Command concentrates on senior military leadership and the generals who exercised it. The first volume of two focuses on "Civil War Generals and Generalship." Volume II covers "Civil War Strategy, Operations, and Organization." Each chapter is free-standing. Some are grounded in extensive original research, and others bring readily available information together in new formulations and suggest new ways to consider it. Still others offer my own analyses and interpretations of oft-explored subjects, such as the generalship of U.S. Grant and Robert E. Lee and Confederate generalship in the Gettysburg Campaign; all grounded in sixty-three years of studying and thinking about the Civil War."--Provided by publisher.
