The Shiloh Campaign March- April 1862

The Shiloh Campaign provides a moment-by-moment account of the battle at the level of the individual soldier, but also examines the grand tactics of the Civil War's Western Theater and problems at the highest level of leadership on both sides. Grant's uneasy relationship with his then-commander Henry Halleck is described, as well as Grant's and Sherman's very modern-sounding problems with the press. David G. Martin's The Shiloh Campaign provides the most accurate order of battle available. A special "Leaders" section profiles 33 major personalities of the battle and the book's "Campaign" format shows the relationship of Shiloh to previous engagements at Fort Donelson and Island No. 10, and the opening up of the decisive Western Theater of the Civil War.

Dr. David G. Martin has written numerous books of military history including The Vicksburg Campaign, The Shiloh Campaign, The Philadelphia Campaign, and Confederate Monuments at Gettysburg.
