Description: You are considering an oversized or trade paperback book A RIVER UNVEXED, A HISTORY AND TOUR GUIDE OF THE CAMPAIGN FOR THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER by Jim Miles; PUBLISHER: Rutledge Hill Press; 1994, first printing; 596 pages. When the Civil War began, control of the Mississippi River was the Confederacy's most important asset. For more than two years, 200,000 soldiers fought over a 500-mile stretch of the waterway--the longest battlefield in American history--touching seven states and resulting in twenty major battles and sieges. A River Unvexed is the first comprehensive account of the campaign for the entire Mississippi River. It begins on the upper river where Union gunboats were built, follows them as they fought past Confederate positions to occupy Memphis, traces Farragut's capture of New Orleans, and details the complex strategies employed by Grant for his armies to reach Vicksburg. Finally the campaign is ended with the Union victory over Confederate forces at Vicksburg. CONDITION: Cover is worn. No other known damage.
