The Confederate Surrender at Greensboro : Final Days of the Army of Tennessee, April 1865, Paperback / softback Book

The Confederate Surrender at Greensboro : Final Days of the Army of Tennessee, April 1865 Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Drawing upon more than 200 eyewitness accounts, this work chronicles the largest troop surrender of the Civil War, at Greensboro--one of the most confusing, frustrating and tension-filled events of the war.

Long overshadowed by Appomattox, this event was equally important in ending the war, and is much more representative of how most Americans in 1865 experienced the conflict's end.

The book includes a timeline, organisational charts, an order of battle, maps, and illustrations.

It also uses many unpublished accounts and provides information on Confederate campsites that have been lost to development and neglect.
