Reviews
Combining microhistory with a bit of historiography as well as it does...is the ideal battlefield guide for those souls, although the casual passerby will benefit from Mertz's insights as well., "As a volume in the Savas Beatie series "Emerging Civil War", this is primarily intended for the relative novice, but even the veteran student of the war will likely find it interesting.", Mertz's book possesses the series's typical abundance of photographs and other illustrations. There are seventeen maps, which is an unusually large number for an ECW entry., Smith aptly contrasts Shiloh as a place of large violence and death at the time of the battle, with the religious connotations of the place, illustrated by the Shiloh Meeting House. Shiloh today is a place for peace and reflection. Furthermore, the battlefield is a place to relearn and to recover love for the United States, its accomplishments, and its potentialities.

Synopsis
Attack at daylight and whip them that was the Confederate plan on the morning of April 6, 1862. The unsuspecting Union Army of the Tennessee, commanded by Major General Ulysses S. Grant, had gathered on the banks of its namesake river at a spot called Pittsburg Landing, ready to strike deep into the heart of Tennessee Confederates, commanded by General Albert Sidney Johnston. Johnston s troops were reeling from setbacks earlier in the year and had decided to reverse their fortunes by taking the fight to the Federals.Johnston planned to attack them at daylight and drive them into the river.A brutal day of fighting ensued, unprecedented in its horror the devil s own day, one union officer admitted. Confederates needed just one final push.Grant did not sit and wait for that assault, though. He gathered reinforcements and planned a counteroffensive. On the morning of April 7, he intended to attack at daylight and whip them.The bloodshed that resulted from the two-day battle exceeded anything America had ever known in its history.Historian Greg Mertz grew up on the Shiloh battlefield, hiking its trails and exploring its fields. Attack at Daylight and Whip Them taps into five decades of intimate familiarity with a battle that rewrote America s notions of war.", Historian Greg Mertz grew up on the Shiloh battlefield.

    The seller was very responsive and answered me on a timely matter. The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!

    Leaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration
