Lee's Lieutenants : A Study in Command
Douglas Southall Freeman
-
Abridged by Stephen W. Sears - a superb book on many levels. As the
subtitle suggests, it examines both the men who carried out Lee's orders, and
the factors that determine the ability to command men in battle. A fog of war approach that examines the decisions of the Confederate
commanders based on the intelligence they had available to them.
Who's Who in World War II; John Keegan
