Description
This book tells the full story of the year-long campaign to win Vicksburg. This Civil War battle solidified Grant's reputation as the Union's most capable general. In the course of the campaign, tens of thousands of slaves fled to the Union lines, where more than 20,000 became soldiers, while others seized the plantations they had been forced to work on, destroying the economy of a large part of Mississippi and creating a social revolution.
