The Civil War on the Mississippi: Union Sailors, Gunboat Captains, and the Campaign to Control the River
Barbara Brooks Tomblin
Drawing heavily on the diaries and letters of officers and common sailors, Barbara Brooks Tomblin explores the years during which the Union navy fought to win control of the Mississippi. Her approach provides fresh insight into major battles such as Memphis and Vicksburg, but also offers fascinating perspectives on lesser-known aspects of the conflict from ordinary sailors.
