Description: BULL RUN: Its Strategy & Tactics by Robert Matteson Johnston. VERY GOOD++ hardcover reprint, 1996. Originally published in 1913, this critical probe of the opening land battle of the US Civil War is an unvarnished view that wastes no time with sentimentality, and places blame where the author sees it. According to Johnston, the Federal defeat at Bull Run was "a lamentable illustration of the awful calamities invariably attending nations that lack or neglect an army." With a standing army of only 17,000 men and 600 officers at the beginning of the war, the early success of the Confederate army was no surprise. A thorough and detailed study from all available sources. Very collectible. VERY GOOD++ hardcover reprint, unread with acid-free (archival) pages clean and unmarked. Light shelf soiling to edges. Jacket shows wear to edges and corners with one 1/8" tear to back edge. Considerable storage scuffing. 6.25" x 9.25." Maps, diagrams, statistics, appendices, and text. 293 pgs.
