DOWNLOAD EBOOKCaptain Farragut is determined to secure the city of New Orleans for the Union. The Richmond government considered the city unconquerable and stripped it of its defensive resources. Audacity was the order of the day and New Orleans would fall. Sailing ships and steam powered vessels, wooden hulls and ironclads, gunboats and forty-eight gun frigates sailed against Fort Jackson and Fort St. Philip for mastery of the mouth of the mighty Mississippi River. The Union fleet would sail farther north to assist in the battles being fought in Tennessee, at Corinth and Memphis, and succeed in restricting the Confederate fleet to the river between Memphis and Baton Rouge. The cities of Vicksburg, Charleston, and Pulaski would all see naval action significant to the outcome of the war.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe South is emboldened by their victory at Bull Run. McClellan is hesitant, either unable or unwilling to confront Lee head on, fearing another defeat for the inexperienced Union troops. The North begins to move on Richmond, the capital of the Confederacy. The Battle of Fair Oaks temporarily checks the South but incorrect maps, poor information, swampy terrain and bad roads leave the Union unable to solidify their advantage. Infighting between the Army and the federal government allows the Confederacy to escape a devastating blow once again. The South's ability to move rapidly is impressive, but lack of direction by the government lets the opportunity for decisive gains slip away.

President Lincoln and the Congress address the problems of governing the divided country and raising funds for the war effort. Problems abound. The North will see suspension of constitutional rights, fund embezzlement, commodities speculation and conscription laws. The South is under extreme financial duress. Blockades along the coastline prevent trade and importation of goods and raw material. The Emancipation Proclamation will inflame the South and some factions in the North as the war drags on...

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe South has seceded and Fort Sumter has fallen. Armies have been raised on both sides. Lincoln is in the White House and determined to preserve the Republic. European powers have hastily declared neutrality. Washington D.C. is being threatened by confederate armies and needs to be guarded by federal troops. Modern warfare is being born. The importance of railways and waterways for the transport of men and supplies through a sparsely populated countryside where no food crops are planted will largely influence military decisions. The first conflict will take place at Manassas Junction in the first Battle of Bull Run.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKVirginia becomes the battleground after Antietam. As the Confederates retreat, Union forces miss an opportunity to follow and inflict a mortal blow. Lee is able to retreat and re-arm. McClellan, being given incorrect information as to the numbers of confederates under arms, takes too much time to re-equip. Due to this strategic blunder, he is relieved of command by President Lincoln in mid-campaign and replaced by General Burnside. The Battle of Fredericksburg will be his initiation, and the immense Union losses on the slopes of Marye's Heights his legacy.
