Bücher von Stephen D. Engle

The only full biography of Don Carlos Buell, the talented Union general who led the Army of Ohio in 1861-62. A pro-slavery Democrat, Buell was removed from command in 1862 because of his failure to pursue Union objectives.

In this rich study of Union governors and their role in the US Civil War, Stephen D. Engle examines how these politicians were pivotal in securing victory. While providing detailed and engaging portraits of these men, their state-level actions, and their collective cooperation, Engle brings into new focus the era's complex political history.
