Calkins, was a battlefield preservation leader in Virginia. Chris Calkins worked for the National Park Service for 34 years and served at Appomattox Court House National Historical Park, Fredericksburg & Spotsylvania National Military Park, ending his career as historian and Chief of Interpretation at Petersburg National Battlefield. In 2008 he accepted the position of first full-time Park Manager of Sailor?s Creek Battlefield Historical State Park. He retired from Petersburg National Battlefield July 2009. Chris authored twelve publications, numerous articles, and spoken nationally to many Civil War and preservation groups. He was the author of the highly acclaimed ?Lee?s Retreat? (featured in LIFE and SOUTHERN LIVING magazines) which is now being used as a successful example of Heritage Tourism nationwide, and was the ?grandfather? of Virginia Civil War Trails. Chris was interviewed on the History Channel, A & E, and ITV in the UK. He was an ?2014 Award of Merit winner by the Leadership in History Awards committee? ?for his dedication to preserving the Civil War battlefield landscape of Virginia? by the American Association for State and Local History; one of three Virginians to receive this award. Previous accounts of the Civil War s last major campaign have often neglected the actual maneuvers and tactics of the units involved. This book features a tactical approach to the final drama of the Civil War. Innovative maps, sidebars and charts complement a dramatic narrative. The fall of Petersburg and Richmond, the last battles at Dinwiddie Court House, Five Forks, Sutherland Station, Namozine Church, Amelia Springs, High Bridge, Sailor s Creek, Cumberland Church, Appomattox Station, and Appomattox Court House as well as the surrender are all described by the author whose extensive knowledge of the historical sources is equaled by his long familiarity with the countryside over which the armies marched and fought. The author provides a day-to-day narrative of this fascinating campaign, with a series of specially commissioned maps that make clear the complex series of maneuvers that finally brought Lee s beleaguered army to bay. Special sidebars highlight many incidents and personalities of the campaign, and the various Virginia locations through which the armies marched. One sidebar also includes never-before-published information on African-Americans in Confederate service. Record-keeping, especially for the Confederates, was difficult in the last hectic days of the war, and readers will find here the most complete order of battle and strength and casualty figures available for both sides. The Appomattox Campaign also contains many references that make it easy to use in conjunction with the Commonwealth of Virginia s official Lee s Retreat sites. Soft cover, 240 pages, index, 18 special sidebars with in-depth information, more than 70 photos and illustrations and 16 maps. Presumed First Paperback Edition, First printing.
