Summary: "Taaffe's examination of these men is a welcome contribution to historiography concerning the Army of the Potomac and the Union war effort as a whole. [This book] provides a clear and insightful view of complicated military organization, or disorganization. . . . Deserves a place on the shelves of Civil War scholars and 'buffs' alike."-H-Net Reviews "An excellent contribution to the Civil War literature. Readers looking for a good, succinct study of the Army of the Potomac and its troubled high command will find this work both enjoyable and of considerable value to their efforts to better understand the Union war effort in the East."-Journal of American History "Aside from Taaffe's superb analysis of command in the Army of the Potomac, his examination of senior military commanders delivers a valuable message to our nation's current defense establishment."-Army "Taaffe's thoughtful book helps explain why it took the Union four years to win the war."-Washington Times "A well written volume that flows smoothly and is an enjoyable read."-Civil War News. |
