How the South Could Have Won the Civil War: The Fatal Errors That Led to Confederate Defeat Reprint edition

Destroying conventional historical wisdom, acclaimed military historian Bevin Alexander reveals how the South most definitely could have defeated the North-and how close a Confederate victory came to happening. Alexander shows:

?How the Confederacy had its greatest chance to win the war just three months into the fighting-but blew it
? How the Confederacy?s three most important leaders- President Jefferson Davis and Generals Robert E. Lee and Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson? clashed over how to fight the war
? How the Confederate army devised?but never fully exploited?a way to negate the Union?s huge advantages in manpower and weaponry
? How Abraham Lincoln and other Northern leaders understood the Union?s vulnerability better than the Confederacy?s leaders did

How the South Could Have Won the Civil War provides a startling account of how a relatively small number of tactical and strategic mistakes cost the South the war and changed the course of history.
