Produktbeschreibung
This appealing narrative history of one of the Civil War's most pivotal campaigns analyzes how the western Confederate army under John B. Hood suffered a devastating defeat at the hands of George H. Thomas's Union forces. Ideal for general readers interested in military history of the Civil War as well as those concentrating on the western campaigns, The 1864 Franklin-Nashville Campaign: The Finishing Stroke examines how the strategic and tactical decisions by Confederate and Union commanders contributed to the smashing Northern victories in Tennessee in November-December 1864. The book also considers the conflict through the lens of New Military History, including the manner in which the battles both affected and were affected by civilian individuals, the environment, and common soldiers such as Confederate veteran Sam Watkins. The result of author Michael Thomas Smith's extensive research into the Civil War and his recognition of inadequate coverage of the final western campaigns in the existing literature, this work serves to rectify this oversight. The book also questions the concept of the outcome of the Civil War as being essentially attributable to superior Northern organization and management-the "organized war to victory" theory as termed by its proponents.
Autorenporträt
From UK Roots to Spanish Shores I'm originally from the UK, where I spent my formative years and received my education. Life then took me on an exciting adventure to sunny Spain, where I now happily reside. Beyond enjoying the Spanish climate and culture, I'm an avid bridge player. The strategic thinking and social aspects of the game keep me mentally sharp and provide opportunities to connect with like-minded individuals. However, my true passion lies in the digital realm. I've had the pleasure of creating and launching several websites, immersing myself in the world of web development. But my greatest satisfaction comes from successfully developing online businesses that generate income. It's a constant learning process, but the thrill of building something from scratch and seeing it flourish is incredibly rewarding. When I'm not glued to the screen, you might find me out on the water as a keen yachtsman. There's something truly invigorating about sailing, the feeling of freedom, and the challenge of harnessing the power of the wind. Whether it's bridge games, building online ventures, or navigating the open seas, I'm always up for a challenge and enjoy the journey of continuous learning.
