The Battles For Spotsylvania Court House And The Road To Yellow Tavern, May 712, 1864 Continues Gordon C. Rheas Peerless Treatment Of The Civil Wars Clash Of Titans: Grants Army Of The Potomac Versus Lees Army Of Northern Virginia. Inlaid With Detail, Innovative Analysis, Riveting Prose, And An Abundance Of Supporting Primary Evidence, It Is A Worthy Sequel To Rheas First, Acclaimed Work, The Battle Of The Wilderness, May 56, 1864.Here Rhea Examines The Maneuvers And Battles From May 7, 1864, When Grant Left The Wilderness, Through May 12, When His Attempt To Break Lees Line By Frontal Assault Reached A Chilling Climax At What Is Now Called The Bloody Angle.After Suffering Severe Casualties In The Wilderness, Lee Had No Choice But To Curb His Aggressive Instincts And Prepare For A Defensive Battle At Spotsylvania. Perfecting The Art Of Fieldworks (Which Foreshadowed The Trenches In France During World War I), He Orchestrated His Threadbare Veterans In A Defensive Performance That Ranks As A Classic In Military History. Grant, Sworn To Destroy Lees Army, Had To Solve The Knotty Problem Of Penetrating His Adversarys Confounding, Wellappointed Earthworks. He Mounted A Volley Of Assaults That Proved Slaughterous For Both Armies And Led To A Turning Point In His Strategic Thinking. Contributing To The Carnage Were Advances In Weaponry That By 1864 Had Outstripped The Napoleonic Warfare Of The Day. The Result Was Massive Casualties: On May 12 Alone, Lee Lost Eight Thousand Men; Grant, Nine Thousand.Rhea Draws Exhaustively Upon Previously Untapped Materialsmost Notably Contemporary Newspaper Accounts And Diaries And Letters Only Recently Made Availableto Construct The Definitive Account Of Grant And Lee At Spotsylvania. Here For The First Time Is A Detailed Description Of The Cavalrys Role In The Campaign, From The Grim Fighting At Todds Tavern Through Philip Sheridans Richmond Raid And Jeb Stuarts Mortal Wounding At Yellow Tavern. Here, Too, Are Fresh And Challenging Interpretations That Often Contradict Conventional Wisdom.When May 13 Dawned To An Eerie Silence, There Was No Clear Victor Of The Previous Days Battles. As Rhea States In His Epilogue, The End Was Not Yet In Sight. The Wily Lee And Bulldog Grant Would Soon Meet Again.
