Michael R Bradley 
The Last Words, The Farewell Addresses of Union and Confederate Commanders to Their Men at the End of the War Between the States [EPUB ebook] 

Apoio

At the very end of the War Between the States, seventeen commanders delivered farewell addresses to the men they had led through four years of hell during which 750, 000 died and over a million were maimed. The seventeen include General Robert E. Lee, General Ulysses S. Grant, Major General William T. Sherman, Lieutenant-General Nathan Bedford Forrest, Major General George Gordon Meade, Colonel John Singleton Mosby, Lieutenant-Colonel Charles T. Trowbridge (U.S. Colored Troops), General Joseph E. Johnston, Major General Joseph Wheeler and Major General Robert F. Hoke.

Those eight Confederate and nine Union addresses are important documents in American history because they show CLEARLY what each side was fighting for.

Historian Michael R. Bradley has given us exciting narrative history researched in minute detail on the seventeen commanders, their units, battles and last words to their men. If you love history, it does not get better than this.

Includes 47 page Prologue by historian Gene Kizer, Jr., and Introduction by the author.
