From the Back Cover
"Far and away the best investigation and analysis of the impact of the American Civil War on European military thought and military history."--Russell F. Weigley, author of The American Way of War
"A wonderfully original work."--Stephen B. Oates, author of Abraham Lincoln
"Luvaas shows in general how military ideas are transmitted or lost within professional circles. This contribution is one of the few important pieces on the intellectual history of war."--Alex Roland, author of Underwater Warfare in the Age of Sail
"Practically in a class by itself among the more than 70,000 volumes published on the Civil War period."--James I. Robertson, Jr., author of General A. P. Hill: The Story of a Confederate Warrior
