There are countless books and maps about the American Civil War but there is nothing that provides a graphic overview of the history of the various Confederate armies throughout the war... until now. The History of the Confederate Army charts the size and battle history of the Army of Northern Virginia, Army of Tennessee, and 21 other armies. It provides understanding and context of why the Army of Northern Virginia was more successful than the Army of Tennessee. See the relationship between the various armies ... which army sent reinforcements to other theaters and which armies split their forces. See how the Army of Northern Virginia expanded and contracted during the war. See how the Army of Tennessee was formed from a number of smaller armies.
The History of the Confederate Army is divided vertically by date and horizontally by the three major theaters of the war. Inspired by Charles Joseph Minard's Napoleon's March to Moscow statistical graphic, many variables are charted including the size, history, and commanding generals of the 23 Confederate armies. In addition, the name, location, date, casualty figures and who won for the 100 most important battles are provided.
