Críticas:
"In this book, the author covers the Civil War's eastern theater from 1861-65 and leads you through a progressive linage of the fighting infantryman on both sides under the, quoting the book, 'appalling realities of warfare in the industrial age.' You'll follow the infantryman in the key battles such as First Bull Run/Manassas, 'The Bloody Angle' Gettysburg, and Chaffin's Farm/New Market Heights. The later battle sets focus on African American troops fighting for the union. The book further discusses in-depth the tactics and strategies used by both sides. The evolution of uniforms worn by the troops is an interesting story in itself and will surely aid the purist modeler. The diorama modeler will appreciate the interesting period b&w photographs, plus it's packed with a wide range of colorful paintings and maps." --IPMS/USA "The book is superbly illustrated with period photos and illustrations as well as art work and maps. It makes for a real insight into the two groups and is a fascinating read in its own right. I'm sure you will enjoy this one." --Scott Van Aken, www.modelingmadness.com
Reseña del editor:
The enthusiastic but largely inexperienced soldiers serving on both sides in the Civil War had to adapt quickly to the appalling realities of warfare in the industrial age. Author Ron Field, an authority on the Civil War, investigates three clashes that illustrate the changing realities of combat. Pitched into combat after an exhausting march to reach the battlefield, newly recruited infantrymen of both sides clashed at First Bull Run/Manassas in 1861.Two years later, the outcome of the Civil War's pivotal battle at Gettysburg hung in the balance as the Confederate veterans of Pickett's Division mounted a set-piece attack on Union positions at 'The Bloody Angle'. In 1864, African-American troops fighting for the Union took part in a bloody assault on formidable Confederate positions at Chaffin's Farm/New Market Heights, outside Petersburg. This absorbing study casts light on what it was like to take part in close-quarters battle during the Civil War, as increased infantry firepower and an increasing reliance on prepared defensive positions spelled the end of close-order tactics in the conflict that shaped America.

Buchbeschreibung Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Dennis, Peter (illustrator). The enthusiastic but largely inexperienced soldiers serving on both sides in the Civil War had to adapt quickly to the appalling realities of warfare in the industrial age. Author Ron Field, an authority on the Civil War, investigates three clashes that illustrate the changing realities of combat. Pitched into combat after an exhausting march to reach the battlefield, newly recruited infantrymen of both sides clashed at First Bull Run/Manassas in 1861.Two years later, the outcome of the Civil Wars pivotal battle at Gettysburg hung in the balance as the Confederate veterans of Picketts Division mounted a set-piece attack on Union positions at The Bloody Angle. In 1864, African-American troops fighting for the Union took part in a bloody assault on formidable Confederate positions at Chaffins Farm/New Market Heights, outside Petersburg. This absorbing study casts light on what it was like to take part in close-quarters battle during the Civil War, as increased infantry firepower and an increasing reliance on prepared defensive positions spelled the end of close-order tactics in the conflict that shaped America.
