Bücher von Gordon C. Rhea

With On to Petersburg, Gordon Rhea completes his much-lauded history of the Overland Campaign, a series of Civil War battles fought between Generals Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee in southeastern Virginia in the spring of 1864.

In his gripping fourth volume on the spring 1864 Overland campaign - which pitted Ulysses S. Grant against Robert E. Lee for the first time in the Civil War - Gordon Rhea vividly recreates the battles and manoeuvres from the North Anna stalemate through the Cold Harbor offensive.

The second volume in Gordon Rhea's five-book series on the Civil War's 1864 Overland Campaign abounds with Rhea's signature detail, innovative analysis, and riveting prose. Here Rhea examines the manoeuvres and battles from May 7, 1864, when Grant left the Wilderness, to May 12, when his attempt to break Lee's line reached a chilling climax.
