Back to Bragg


One of the first things that I recommend to learn about Braxton Bragg is the transcript of a talk that the late Dr. McWhiney made to the Civil War Round Table in Chicago, http://users.aol.com/CintiCWRT/bragg.html. The article is short, but covers some of the basic misunderstandings about General Bragg.

That is a very interesting article! I wonder if McClellan should have been used the same way, as someone who had good strategic insight and organizational skills but lacked the "head" for field command.
