As a resident of an Ohio town that 'hosted' Morgan and his raiders, I have always found the subject of the raid very interesting. This book was not a disappointment but.....I was hoping for a more behind the scenes look. Very little was said about his grip through my county, and that was disappointing. I do intend to follow some of the routes through the area, the book is great for giving information on the route, along with maps and legends. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
One of the nation's most colorful leaders, Confederate general John Hunt Morgan, took his cavalry through enemy-occupied territory in three states in one of the longest offensives of the Civil War. A military operation unlike any other on American soil, Morgan's Raid was characterized by incredible speed, superhuman endurance and innovative tactics.The effort produced the only battles fought north of the Ohio River and reached farther north than any other regular Confederate force. With twenty-five maps and more than forty illustrations, Morgan's Raid historian David L. Mowery takes a new look at this unprecedented event in American history, one historians rank among the world's greatest land-based raids since Elizabethan times.
