内容説明
This book argues that the mismanagement of logistics in the Civil War railroad movements contributed more significantly to Confederate defeat in the war than previously acknowledged. Presenting in-depth studies of the Longstreet and 11th and 12th Corps movements, Clark drives the point that as the war became longer, both sides had to adjust to the demands of an increasingly long-distance logistics-driven conflict. The Union, he argues, successfully marshaled its industrial base to serve the war effort and made especially good use of its railroads, whereas the Confederacy did not organize logistics effectively.

内容説明
By the time of the Civil War, the railroads had advanced to allow the movement of large numbers of troops even though railways had not yet matured into a truly integrated transportation system. Gaps between lines, incompatible track gauges, and other vexing impediments remained in both the North and South. As John E. Clark explains in this compelling study, the skill with which Union and Confederate war leaders met those problems and utilized the rail system to its fullest potential was an essential ingredient for ultimate victory.
