Valleys of the Shadow
They also offer valuable analyses of battles from a participant's point of view and discuss the irony many soldiers felt when combat pitted them against men they had known before the war in business, politics, and society.
Two Ozark Rivers
Two Ozark Rivers has become a perennial favorite among canoeists, hikers, and other outdoor enthusiasts. Now this remarkable portrait of the Current and the Jacks Fork Rivers, granted national-park status in 1964 as the Ozark National Scenic Riverways, is available for the first time in paperback. Oliver Schuchard's dramatic visual presentation and Steve Kohler's evocative description vividly interpret this unique region, where beauty, recreation, and relaxation are delightfully combined.
Fort Donelson's Legacy
"Fort Donelson's Legacy portrays the tapestry of war and society in the upper southern heartland of Tennessee and Kentucky after the key Union victories at Forts Henry and Donelson in February 1862. Those victories, notes Benjamin Franklin Cooling, could have delivered the decisive blow to the Confederacy in the West and ended the war in that theater. Instead, what followed was terrible devastation and bloodshed that embroiled soldier and civilian alike. Cooling compellingly describes a struggle that was marked not only by the movement of armies and the strategies of generals but also by the rise of guerrilla bands and civil resistance. It was, in part, a war fought for geography - for rivers and railroads and for strategic cities such as Nashville, Louisville, and Chattanooga. But it was also a war for the hearts and minds of the populace ... In exploring the complex terrain of 'total war' that steadily engulfed Tennessee and Kentucky, Cooling draws on a huge array of sources, including official military records and countless diaries and memoirs. He makes considerable use of the words of participants to capture the attitudes and concerns of those on both sides."--Dust jacket.
