How the South Could Have Won the Civil War: The Fatal Errors That Led to Confederate Defeat

Destroying conventional historical wisdom, acclaimed military historian Bevin Alexander reveals how the South most definitely could have defeated the North-and how close a Confederate victory came to happening. Alexander shows:

â€¢How the Confederacy had its greatest chance to win the war just three months into the fighting-but blew it
â€¢ How the Confederacyâ€™s three most important leaders- President Jefferson Davis and Generals Robert E. Lee and Thomas "Stonewall" Jacksonâ€“ clashed over how to fight the war
â€¢ How the Confederate army devisedâ€“but never fully exploitedâ€“a way to negate the Unionâ€™s huge advantages in manpower and weaponry
â€¢ How Abraham Lincoln and other Northern leaders understood the Unionâ€™s vulnerability better than the Confederacyâ€™s leaders did

How the South Could Have Won the Civil War provides a startling account of how a relatively small number of tactical and strategic mistakes cost the South the war and changed the course of history.
