Book excerpt: Captain Farragut is determined to secure the city of New Orleans for the Union. The Richmond government considered the city unconquerable and stripped it of its defensive resources. Audacity was the order of the day and New Orleans would fall. Sailing ships and steam powered vessels, wooden hulls and ironclads, gunboats and forty-eight gun frigates sailed against Fort Jackson and Fort St. Philip for mastery of the mouth of the mighty Mississippi River. The Union fleet would sail farther north to assist in the battles being fought in Tennessee, at Corinth and Memphis, and succeed in restricting the Confederate fleet to the river between Memphis and Baton Rouge. The cities of Vicksburg, Charleston, and Pulaski would all see naval action significant to the outcome of the war.
Download or read book Richmond written by Comte De Paris and published by Digital Scanning Inc. This book was released on 2009-02 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The South is emboldened by their victory at Bull Run. McClellan is hesitant, either unable or unwilling to confront Lee head on, fearing another defeat for the inexperienced Union troops. The North begins to move on Richmond, the capital of the Confederacy. The Battle of Fair Oaks temporarily checks the South but incorrect maps, poor information, swampy terrain and bad roads leave the Union unable to solidify their advantage. Infighting between the Army and the federal government allows the Confederacy to escape a devastating blow once again. The South's ability to move rapidly is impressive, but lack of direction by the government lets the opportunity for decisive gains slip away.

Book excerpt: The business of funding the war is the subject of this volume. President Lincoln and the Congress address the problems of governing the divided country and raising funds for the war effort. Problems abound. The North will see suspension of constitutional rights, fund embezzlement, commodities speculation and conscription laws. The South is under extreme financial duress. Blockades along the coastline prevent trade and importation of goods and raw material. The Emancipation Proclamation will inflame the South and some factions in the North as the war drags on...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The South has seceded and Fort Sumter has fallen. Armies have been raised on both sides. Lincoln is in the White House and determined to preserve the Republic. European powers have hastily declared neutrality. Washington D.C. is being threatened by confederate armies and needs to be guarded by federal troops. Modern warfare is being born.

Download or read book The American Army written by Comte De Paris and published by Digital Scanning Inc. This book was released on 2009-02 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first volume of this series gives a brief history of the evolution of the army in America. In the interest of maintaining their independence, the individual states put up fierce and successful resistance to the establishment of a standing army under the command of a central government. As a result, each armed threat meant appealing to Congress to fund troops for a defined amount of time. The end of any conflict meant the dissolution of the army until the need arose again. A true standing army would not be established until 1815, after the War of 1812.

Book excerpt: Grant was finally given the freedom to maneuver and fight as he saw fit. The plan was to move along the Mississippi and isolate Vicksburg from support by Pemberton's army. The Confederate forces continued to harass the Union Army, disrupting communications and, in a surprise assault by Van Dorn, actually taking and destroying the strategic federal supply depot at Holly Springs. Nathan Bedford Forrest was active, but unsuccessful. There were skirmishes in the West at Gallatin and Nashville, culminating in the Battle of Murfreesborough and Stone River.
Download or read book Kentucky written by Comte De Paris and published by Digital Scanning Inc. This book was released on 2009-02 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kentucky was a neutral state. The state government would not choose sides in the conflict. The story of "brother against brother" was true for many families in Kentucky. The Confederacy wanted the state, as did the Union. Incursions by Union forces against defenders at Fort Henry and Fort Donelson gave the North early victories. The Confederacy would respond in the spring and summer by interrupting communications between far flung northern commanders using ingenious methods. Battles in Perryville, Munfordville and continued guerrilla raids by Gen. John Hunt Morgan carried the conflict through 1862, only to see the Confederacy retreat from the state for the rest of the war.

Book excerpt: Virginia becomes the battleground after Antietam. As the Confederates retreat, Union forces miss an opportunity to follow and inflict a mortal blow. Lee is able to retreat and re-arm. McClellan, being given incorrect information as to the numbers of confederates under arms, takes too much time to re-equip. Due to this strategic blunder, he is relieved of command by President Lincoln in mid-campaign and replaced by General Burnside. The Battle of Fredericksburg will be his initiation, and the immense Union losses on the slopes of Marye's Heights his legacy.
Download or read book Maryland written by Comte De Paris and published by Digital Scanning Inc. This book was released on 2009-02 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jealousy and infighting, along with continued interference from Washington left the Union high command completely without purpose. Troops sat idle, or marched to strategically ineffective locations. The Battle of Cedar Mountain would be claimed as a victory by both sides. The Union Army under Pope was nearly destroyed in the second Battle at Manassas Junction. The inability of the federal army leaders to work together, in direct contrast to the Confederate leaders under Lee, puts Washington in danger once again. Pope is relieved and McClellan once again assumes command of Union forces. Lee would move away from the encamped federal troops near Washington and head for the rich resources of Pennsylvania and the Shenandoah Valley. McClellan was ordered keep watch on Washington and it looked as if the South would have the freedom to move through Maryland unchecked....until Harper's Ferry and Antietam.

Book excerpt: The long established political power of the South was no longer invincible. The northern politicians were beginning to push back. Some southern leaders foresaw the economic dangers of secession and instead planned to overtake the Republic. They sought to preserve slavery and their way of life in the face of increased immigration from Europe which created a larger pool of "free" labor. The industrial North was no longer willing to cede to every demand by the southern oligarchy "in order to preserve the Union." The South was prepared for war, and the North could not, and would not, back down this time. Fort Sumter would be the opening salvo...
