"Brad Gottfried's The Maps of First Bull Run is a solid follow-up
to his The Maps of Gettysburg. The maps are very user-friendly,
easily readable, and highly detailed without being the least bit
confusing, and there are enough of them to give a complete picture
of the course of the action. Combine each full-page map with the
facing text, and this book provides readers with a good
understanding of much of the action in the Eastern Theater during
the first year of the war."--James A. Morgan, III, author of A
Little Short of Boats: The Fights at Ball's Bluff and Edward's
Ferry, October 21-22, 1861
"Brad Gottfried's The Maps of First Bull Run is filled with
full-page maps and accompanying facing text that will help make
sense of the confusing series of events for Bull Run/Manassas
neophytes and old hands alike. I highly recommend it."--Harry
Smeltzer, host of the Civil War blog Bull Runnings
