Book excerpt: Excerpt from Operations of the Army Under Buell From June 10th to October 30th, 1862, and the Buell Commission The book form, to which the treatment of the sub ject discussed in the following pages is not adapted. And which was not thought of in preparing the review, became necessary from the fact that the work out grew the limits of a magazine. The time from June 10 to October 30, 1862, is taken, because that is the period covered by the Commission which investi gated the operations of the army under Buell. Buell was assigned to command of the department of the Ohio, for the reason that the Union cause in that department, especially military affairs in Ken tucky, were in a desperate condition, and it was thought that nothing but judicious management and extraordinary exertion could rescue the State from the vortex of rebellion. The rebels had inaugurated a provisional government at Russelville; they held military possession of one third of the State and were strong and aggressive. General Albert Sidney J ohn ston was in command. His force was estimated at or men. His main body and Head quarters were at Bowling Green with an advance guard at Munfordville, and he held Fort Henry on the Tennessee and Fort Donelson on the Cumber land. General Humphrey Marshall was threaten ing Eastern Kentucky through Pound Gap, and a force under General Zollicofi'er held Cumberland Gap and points north of it. Bands of men were constantly forming to join the rebel ranks. The population was in a state of alarm. Loyal people were intimidated, and in some parts of the State the Union sentiment dared not express itself.

Book excerpt: Ulysses S. Grant wrote in his memoirs of Don Carlos Buell, "General Buell was a brave, intelligent officer, with as much professional pride and ambition of a commendable sort as I ever knew."Yet Buell was cashiered from the army during the American Civil War after the battles of Shiloh and Perryville. The North was outraged that Buell had not defeated an outnumbered Confederate force and considered him too cautious.One man who served with him, James Fry, attempted to give Buell his day in court with this account of Buell's actions from June 10th TO October 30th, 1862. Included here are excerpts from the so-called Buell Commission investigating his command, and Buell's own responses. It all makes for fascinating reading of a little-known and important event in the Civil War.Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.

Download or read book Don Carlos Buell written by Stephen D. Engle and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2006-12-29 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major General Don Carlos Buell stood among the senior Northern commanders early in the Civil War, led the Army of the Ohio in the critical Kentucky theater in 1861-62, and helped shape the direction of the conflict during its first years. Only a handful of Northern generals loomed as large on the military landscape during this period, and Buell is the only one of them who has not been the subject of a full-scale biography. A conservative Democrat, Buell viewed the Civil War as a contest to restore the antebellum Union rather than a struggle to bring significant social change to the slaveholding South. Stephen Engle explores the effects that this attitude--one shared by a number of other Union officers early in the war--had on the Northern high command and on political-military relations. In addition, he examines the ramifications within the Army of the Ohio of Buell's proslavery leanings. A personally brave, intelligent, and talented officer, Buell nonetheless failed as a theater and army commander, and in late 1862 he was removed from command. But as Engle notes, Buell's attitude and campaigns provided the Union with a valuable lesson: that the Confederacy would not yield to halfhearted campaigns with limited goals.
Download or read book The Military Memoirs of General John Pope written by Peter Cozzens and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Union general John Pope was among the most controversial and misunderstood figures to hold major command during the Civil War. Before being called east in June 1862 to lead the Army of Virginia against General Robert E. Lee, he compiled an enviable record in Missouri and as commander of the Army of the Mississippi. After his ignominious defeat at the Second Battle of Bull Run, he was sent to the frontier. Over the next twenty-four years Pope held important department commands on the western plains and was recognized as one of the army's leading authorities on Indian affairs, but he never again commanded troops in battle. In 1886, Pope was engaged by the National Tribune, a weekly newspaper published in Washington, D.C., to write a series of articles on his wartime experiences. Over the next five years, in twenty-nine installments, he wrote about the war as he had lived it. Collected here for the first time, Pope's "war reminiscences" join a select roster of memoirs written by Civil War army commanders. Pope presents a detailed review of the campaigns in which he participated and offers vivid character sketches of such illustrious figures as Abraham Lincoln and Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton. Clearly written and balanced in tone, his memoirs are a dramatic and important addition to the literature on the Civil War. Originally published in 1998.

Download or read book Staff Ride Handbook For The Battle Of Perryville 8 October 1862 Illustrated Edition written by Dr. Robert S. Cameron and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illustrated with 9 figures and 11 maps of the campaign and engagements at Perryville. The battle of Perryville symbolized the high-water mark of the Confederacy in the western theater of operations. In Aug. 1862 General Braxton Bragg and Major General (MG) Edmund Kirby Smith led separate armies into Kentucky to wrest the state from the Union and install a Confederate governor. They initially met success and captured the state capital, simultaneously shifting the war in the west from northern Mississippi and Alabama to Kentucky. In response the North raised additional forces to protect Cincinnati and Louisville while MG Don Carlos Buell halted his offensive against Chattanooga and marched his Army of the Ohio back to Kentucky. On 8 Oct. 1862 Buell’s army clashed with Bragg’s at Perryville. The Confederates achieved a tactical success in a hard-fought engagement that generated more than 7,000 casualties. Of the regiments engaged, 10 suffered losses between 40 and 60 percent. However, outnumbered by three to one, Bragg’s army could not sustain its victory and withdrew. Within days of the battle, all of the invading Southern forces retired from the state. Kentucky remained firmly in the Union and secure from Confederate invasion for the war’s duration. Despite its importance to the course of the war in the west, Perryville does not benefit from the high visibility accorded the better-known Civil War sites such as Manassas, Gettysburg, Antietam, and Chickamauga. Although more than 70,000 Union and Confederate soldiers deployed in and around Perryville, understanding of the battle and its significance to the overall course of the war remains poor. For staff ride purposes this unfamiliarity can be a benefit. It forces the participants to study and think about the situation facing their Civil War counterparts without the preconceived notions that surround the more popular sites.
