Description
Summary:	On Fields of Fury is a dramatic re-creation, largely in the words of participants, of Grant's first confrontation with Lee after his appointment as commander of the Army of the Potomac, with the goal to win the war before the upcoming presidential election. This book is a superb addition to Richard Wheeler's accounts of Gettysburg, Appomattox, and The Peninsula Campaign.
