Title: Campaigns of the civil war
Review: Mr. Geer makes a vane attempt to prove that had things gone just a little differently then the South would have won the war. He continually refers to the war as the "War of Session" which tips the reader to his sympathies. Mr. Geer glosses over the complete breakdown of the Southern command at Gettysburg and continually pines for the "what should have happened "on the many Southern defeats or pushes. The book is a defense of the Southern policies and an exercise in hero worship of Generals Lee and Jackson. It should be read for what it is, another attempt to revise history
