Master of War
Archival Summary & Scope
Acclaimed historian Benson Bobrick brings to light the extraordinary life of George H. Thomas, whom he argues was the Civil War's greatest general. Known as the "Rock of Chickamauga," Thomas never lost a battle or movement and was the only Union commander to destroy two Confederate armies. Despite his contemporaries considering him the equal of Grant and Sherman, Thomas has been historically underappreciated. Bobrick's meticulously researched and vividly told biography traces Thomas's career from West Point to the battlefield, offering a gripping and detailed account that finally secures his rightful place in American history.Categorization Notes
