Seller's Description:
Very Good. Terrible Swift Sword (The Centennial History of the Civil War #2) by Bruce Catton Hardcover Cloth 559 pages. Condition Very Good NO Dust Jacket. BMOC Presumed First edition 1963. Lovely grey and red boards with silver and black embossing shows off this tight, square copy with no marks, highlights or bookplates. Book Well kept and carefully stored with Slight Shelf wear. Pages are lightly toned. Not an ex-library or remainder copy. The second volume of Bruce Catton's monumental Centennial History of the Civil War. Catton shows how the Union and Confederacy, slowly and inexorably, reconciled themselves to an all-out waran epic struggle for freedom. In Terrible Swift Sword, Bruce Catton tells the story of the Civil War as never beforeof two turning points which changed the scope and meaning of the war. First, he describes how the war slowly but steadily got out of control. This would not be the neat, short, "limited" war both sides had envisioned. And then the author reveals how the sweeping force of all-out conflict changed the war's purpose, in turning it into a war for human freedom. It was not initially a war against slavery. Instead, this was, Mr. Lincoln kept insisting, a fight to reunite the United States. At first, it was not even much of a fight. Cautious generals; inexperienced, incompetent, or jealous administrators; shortages of good people and supplies; excess of both gloom and optimism, kept each side from swinging into decisive action. As the buildup began, there were maddening delays. The earliest engagements were halting and inconclusive. After these first tests at arms, reputations began to crumble. Buell, Halleck, Beauregard Albert Sidney Johnston. Failed to drive aheadfor reasons good and bad. General McClellan (impaled in these pages on the arrogant words of his letters) captured more imaginations than enemies, and continued to accept serious over estimates of Confederate strength while becoming more and more fatally estranged from his own government.
