Fallen Leaders: Favorite Stories and Fresh Perspectives from the Historians at Emerging Civil War recounts the fall of some of the most famous, infamous, and underappreciated commanders from both the North and South.

May and June 1864 in Virginia witnessed some of the most brutal and bloody fighting of the Civil War.
