Field of Battle
Fourteen specially commissioned maps detail specific battles and conditions of the time. Together, the elements weave a rich tapestry: the camaraderie of camp life with its fare of hardtack, skillygalee, and bawdy tunes; the daring raids of Mosby - the Gray Ghost; the horrors at Antietam, Gettysburg, the Wilderness; Sherman's march to the sea; the first black soldiers; Andersonville prison; the charades of flamboyant spies; the games of the brilliant strategists Lee, Jackson, Grant, and Lincoln.
Admiral Bill Halsey
William Halsey, the most famous naval officer of World War II, was known for fearlessness, steely resolve, and impulsive errors. In this definitive biography, Thomas Hughes punctures the popular caricature of the fighting admiral to present a revealing human portrait of his personal and professional life as it was lived in times of war and peace.
