Descripción
Sumario:As a leading Confederate general, Braxton Bragg (1817-76) earned a reputation for incompetence, wantonly shooting his own soldiers, and losing battles. The negative opinions of Bragg's contemporaries have continued to colour assessments of the his military career by generations of historians. Rather than take these assessments at face value, Earl J. Hess's biography offers a much more balanced account of Bragg.
