Back to Perryville

by James Lee McDonough

War in Kentucky: From Shiloh to Perryville

Comments:

This is a decent book, but I really wasn't that impressed. There is little tactical discussion in the book, and the few maps that are present are totally inadequate. The book is at too high of a strategic level for me to really enjoy it, but it does give a nice overview of what was happening in Kentucky in 1862. It would be best to read this before finding more detailed books on the subject, such as Noe's Perryville book. Alone, it isn't worth much.

386 pp., 6 maps
