As the nation prepares to commemorate the sesquicentennial of the conflict in which brother fought brother, the current state of preservation that Bishop provides for each of these sites is timely and helps underscore the significance of Mississippi’s rich Civil War heritage.” —Terrence J. Winschel, historian, Vicksburg National Military Park, and author, Triumph & Defeat: The Vicksburg Campaign Between the years of 1862 and 1864, Mississippi was the site of such conflicts as the Battle of Corinth and the Siege of Vicksburg. This history book covers the fourteen major skirmishes that took place within the Magnolia State during the Civil War and offers a detailed description of each location’s current state of preservation. The maintenance of these sites are necessary to memorialize the more than 80,000 forgotten men who fought in these battles. In chronological order, sixteen chapters discuss each skirmish in detail and include firsthand accounts from those embroiled in the fighting, which depict the conditions faced throughout the series of conflicts. Photographs taken during the Civil War along with images of the sites today offer a past and present perspective of the battles that occurred within Mississippi’s boundaries.
