Longacre; PUBLISHER: Rutledge Hill Press, TN; a 2006 printing; 392 pages. "You and I became reconciled in April 1865, and] have remained so since. . . . All others] who are willing to be reconciled can do it by simply becoming good American citizens." William T. Sherman in a letter to Joseph E. Johnston. It was the most trying time of the United States' young history. Families suffered as their fathers and young men, often mere boys, went off to war. Soldiers were slain by the tens of thousands in brutal battles and entire towns were reduced to rubble and ashes. America was split in two. But in the face of this horrific Civil War, friendships and lifelong bonds were forgedeven across the lines of battle. "Worthy Opponents" is the parallel stories of two key leaders: Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston and Union General William Tecumseh Sherman. After their armies clashed repeatedly, it was only natural for these two commanding offers to become adversaries. Yet as the war wore on, Johnston and Sherman came to respect each other. After the war they became close firends. In "Worthy Opponents," award-winning author and Civil War historian Edward G. Longacre masterfully investigates the intertwining lives and careers of these two celebrated generals. He brings to life their personalities, their military styles, their history, and their ultimate respect and friendship in a readable and fascinating dual biography. Condition: Has minor DJ wear.
