is required reading. This is the best book on the battle."--Civil
War Courier

victory at Shiloh"--Midwest Book Review
"With their sparkling introductory essay, editors Gary Joiner and
Timothy Smith give readers ample reason to want to read O.Edward
Sullivan's 1966 dissertation....Anyone with a serious interest in
the early Western theater campaigns and the Battle of Shiloh will
find this book essential reading. Casual readers will likely enjoy
it as well (not something you can often say about a
dissertation)."--Civil War Books and Authors
