Von der hinteren Coverseite

"With a sure grasp of strategic nuances, [Wheeler] explains the overall campaign that began in the broadest sense when Lee talked Confederate President Davis into authorizing a second invasion of the North. The climactic battle itself is then described in a you-are-there way that renders this enormously complicated affair understandable to non-Civil War buffs." --Publishers Weekly
