The River Was Dyed with Blood: Nathan Bedford Forrest and Fort Pillow
Brian Steel Wills
The battlefield reputation of Confederate general Nathan Bedford Forrest has been shaped by the "massacre" of Union troops at Fort Pillow in 1864. Brian Steel Wills argues that although atrocities did, Forrest did not order or intend a systematic execution of its defenders. Rather, the general's great failing was losing control of his troops.
