A Book on the 1864 Valley Campaign

I finished reading Struggle for the Shenandoah, a paperback collection of essays on the 1864 Valley Campaign. In addition to an introduction and a review of literature on the topic, the book contains:
  • The Shenandoah Valley in 1864 by Gary W. Gallagher
  • Jubal A. Early and Confederate Leadership by Jeffry D. Wert
  • Union Leadership in the 1864 Valley Campaign by A. Wilson Greene
  • "The Cause of All My Disasters": Jubal A. Early and the Undisciplined Valley Cavalry by Robert K. Krick
  • "I Resolved to Play a Bold Game": John S. Mosby as a Factor in the 1864 Valley Campaign by Dennis E. Frye
See my review on Amazon of Struggle for the Shenandoah: Essays on the 1864 Valley Campaign by Gary W. Gallagher. I gave it five stars.
