Reviews
Lowry's highly readable command study of Ulysses S. Grant's Wilderness Campaign (March-June 1864) reveals a sure grasp of Civil War history and military strategy. In contrast to Horace Porter's eyewitness classic Campaigning with Grant (1897) and Noah Trudeau's painstakingly detailed Bloody Roads South (Little, Brown, 1989), Lowry's analysis focuses on how the costly Wilderness Campaign integrated into Grant's broader plans for bringing the conflict to a quick and decisive conclusion. Drawn primarily from secondary sources readily available in comprehensive collections, this book is not an essential purchase for academic or large public libraries. However, Lowry's entertaining style and careful documentation should make it an attractive choice for school or small public libraries.
