Potomac Army Commanders: Comparison
Number of pages:
19
ABSTRACT:
19 pages in length. Military prowess is but one element of being a brilliant commander, inasmuch as psychological construct and split-second maneuvering play just as critical a role in a chief officer's capacity to lead his troops to victory. Evaluating the manner by which Potomac Army commanders approached this objective finds a number of similar approaches that serve to form a common denominator among the men; however, there are enough contrasting tactics that ultimately define each leader as unique in his strategies. Two particularly pertinent battles that help to illustrate these factors include Fredericksburg and Gettysburg. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
