Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas. We specialize in price guides and reference books for the antiques and collectibles industry. Table of Contents The Civil War was the bloodiest conflict in U.S. history, claiming the lives of over 600,000 Americans between 1861 and 1865. The Civil War Day by Day is a chronological, month-by-month approach to the conflict, allowing the reader to see at a glance the key battles on land and at sea, bloody engagements such as First Bull Run, Antietam, Nashville, Chancellorsville, Fredericksburg, Cold Harbor, and Gettysburg. Illustrated throughout with hundreds of contemporary photographs and illustrations, The Civil War Day by Day also includes full-color maps of all the major battles and campaigns in the war, from the Battle of Bull Run in 1861 to Lee's surrender at Appomattox in 1865. Each chapter contains boxes on the weapons that were used by both sides in the Civil War, and the tactics that were employed on the battlefield. As well as the battles and campaigns, the book includes boxes on all the main commanders who led the Confederate and Union armies during the war, such as Grant, Sherman, Lee, Jackson, Sheridan, and Longstreet. In parallel to the military maneuvers in the war, the political events that occurred on both sides are also included, thus providing the background to strategic decisions, the movement of armies, and the appointment and dismissal of commanders. In this way The Civil War Day by Day builds into an invaluable reference volume.
