George Gordon Meade and the War in the East
Rafuse. Even though he defeated Robert E. Lee at
Gettysburg and played a major role in several other major Civil War
campaigns, George Gordon Meade suffered from a perception that he was
simply the last of the unsuccessful generals of the Army of the Potomac.
This book examines the political dynamics that shaped military strategy
and argues that Meade's career was doomed to frustration by an approach
that he knew was flawed but was powerless to change. 192 pgs., 6"x 9",
hdbd.
