Description: The second volume in the three-part Civil War Narrative by Shelby Foote is dominated by the almost continual confrontation of the two great armies, starting at the Battle of Fredericksburg on December 13, 1862 between Lee's Army of Northern Virginia and the Army of the Potomac commanded by Maj. Gen. Burnside. For the fourth time, the Army of the Potomac attempts to take Richmond, resulting in the bloodbath at Fredericksburg. Then Joseph Hooker tries again, only to be repulsed at Chancellorsville as Stonewall Jackson turns his flank, resulting in Jackson's mortal wounding. Ulysses S. Grant's seven relentless efforts against Vicksburg demonstrate Lincoln's and Grant's determination. With Vicksburg finally under siege, Lee again invades the North. The three-day conflict at Gettysburg receives significant coverage. Very minimal wear to corners (see photos), no dust-jacket, pages and spine are very good condition, no markings or creases.
