Only 16 left in stock (more on the way). I have read all three of Cozzens books about the Stones River, Chickamauga, and Chattanooga campaigns. I liken his writing to that of Rick Atkinson ' s World War 2 Liberation trilogy in his style of writing, but Cozzens incredible dissection of battlefield movements is almost blurring at times. The from the boredom of camp life to the smoke and confusion of battle, He does a great job of capturing the confusion and tragedy of the battles as they happened.

Yet another name belongs on that infamous list: Stones River, the setting for Peter Cozzens's No Better Place to Die. It was here that both the Union and Confederate armies lost over one-quarter of their forces in battle casualties. In the 126 years since the guns fell silent at Stones River, few books have examined the bloody clash and its impact on the war's subsequent outcome. No Better Place to Die recounts the events and strategies that brought the two armies to the banks of this central Tennessee river on December 31, 1862. Cozzens re-creates the battle itself, following the movements and performance of individual regiments.
Stones River is not the best known battle of the Civil War, but it was a very important one. The Confederates launched a surprise attack on Union forces in Tennessee that nearly succeeded in breaking the army. It was a battle that made reputations for men like Pat Cleburne and Phil Sheridan for the tenacity of their fighting. ksmyth, October 15, 2005.
