Book excerpt: Excerpt from From Gettysburg to the Rapidan: The Army of the Potomac, July, 1863, to April, 1864 The evening of the 3d of July closed the fighting at Gettysburg. The 4th and part of the 5th were occupied by the Army of the Potomac in attending to the wounded and burying the dead. A field return of the army on the 5th of July showed that its seven infantry corps had, on an average, the numbers usually found in a division, four of them having about 5,000 enlisted men each, the total of the seven amounting to 47,087 enlisted men armed and equipped. On the night of the 4th of July the Army of Northern Virginia began its retreat, leaving behind a large number of its wounded.

Book excerpt: From Gettysburg to the Rapidan: The Army of the Potomac, July, 1863, to April, 1864 is a narrative that was intended to form the first part of Vol. XII of the Scribner Campaigns of the Civil War but was necessarily excluded from the said volume by its bulk. TABLE OF CONTENTS PREFACE. CHAPTER I. General Lee retreats from Gettysburg and crosses the Potomac at Williamsport, intrenching his position to cover the crossing-General Meade follows in pursuit by his left flank-Finds Lee covered by intrenchments too strong to attack without careful examination; but his reconnoissance in force is too late to prevent the crossing-While covering Washington, Meade forces Lee to abandon the Shenandoah Valley, with its large food supplies, and to take position between the Rappahannock and the Rapidan. CHAPTER II. The movement to Centreville-Meade advances against Lee, who is forced to withdraw beyond the Rapidan. CHAPTER III. General Meade Crosses the Rapidan, expecting to surprise General Lee, and encounter his Forces in detail-The plan is frustrated by the failure of the Third Corps to unite with the Second and Sixth Corps on the morning of the second day at Robertson's Tavern-Meade Advances to Mine Run, makes dispositions to attack Lee; but finding him too strongly posted and intrenched, withdraws to his former position on the Rapidan. CHAPTER IV. The Army of the Potomac makes a Demonstration against Lee on the Rapidan to aid General Butler's proposed Attack on Richmond, but only spoils its own chance for surprising Lee in his Winter Quarters-Kilpatrick's attempt to capture Richmond, and release the prisoners of Libby and other Military Prisons.

Book excerpt: The Civil War in the Eastern Theater during the late summer and fall of 1863 was anything but inconsequential. Generals Meade and Lee continued where they had left off, executing daring marches while boldly maneuvering the chess pieces of war in an effort to gain decisive strategic and tactical advantage. Cavalry actions crisscrossed the rolling landscape; bloody battle revealed to both sides the command deficiencies left in the wake of Gettysburg. It was the first and only time in the war Meade exercised control of the Army of the Potomac on his own terms. Jeffrey Wm Hunt brilliant dissects these and others issues in Meade and Lee at Bristoe Station: The Problems of Command and Strategy After Gettysburg, from Brandy Station to the Buckland Races, August 1 to October 31, 1863. The carnage of Gettysburg left both armies in varying states of command chaos as the focus of the war shifted west. Lee further depleted his ranks by dispatching James Longstreet (his best corps commander) and most of his First Corps via rail to reinforce Bragg’s Army of Tennessee. The Union defeat that followed at Chickamauga, in turn, forced Meade to follow suit with the XI and XII Corps. Despite these reductions, the aggressive Lee assumed the strategic offensive against his more careful Northern opponent, who was also busy waging a rearguard action against the politicians in Washington. Meade and Lee at Bristoe Station is a fast-paced, dynamic account of how the Army of Northern Virginia carried the war above the Rappahannock once more in an effort to retrieve the laurels lost in Pennsylvania. When the opportunity beckoned Lee took it, knocking Meade back on his heels with a threat to his army as serious as the one Pope had endured a year earlier. As Lee quickly learned again, A. P. Hill was no Stonewall Jackson, and with Longstreet away Lee’s cudgel was no longer as mighty as he wished. The high tide of the campaign ebbed at Bristoe Station with a signal Confederate defeat. The next move was now up to Meade. Hunt’s follow-up volume to his well-received Meade and Lee After Gettysburg is grounded upon official reports, regimental histories, letters, newspapers, and other archival sources. Together, they provide a day-by-day account of the fascinating high-stakes affair during this three-month period. Coupled with original maps and outstanding photographs, this new study offers a significant contribution to Civil War literature.

Download or read book Meade of Gettysburg written by Freeman Cleaves and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1960 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General George Gordon Meade is best known to history as the commander of the victorious Army of the Potomac at Gettysburg. In his own lifetime meager credit was allotted him for his achievement at Gettysburg, for his long pursuit of General Robert E. Lee into Virginia, and for the furious marches his men were forced into both before and after Gettysburg, until final victory at Appomattox Courthouse. And since his death in 1872, frequent criticism has been meted out to him for not following up the victory his troops accomplished. In this account of Meade and his achievements, the author has attempted to sift the truth from War Office archives and records, from private and public documents, to assess fairly the value of Meade's services.
