Gone for Soldiers : A Novel of the Mexican War - - There are very few books out there that teach about the Mexican War in such an interesting and entertaining way as Jeff Shaara. This account sets the stage for the American Civil War by introducing the reader to many of the notable generals of the Civil War who got their start as privates and lieutenants in the Mexican War. Very interesting account of the US - Mexican war that took place just before our own civil war. I especially enjoyed the author's accounting of what happened to each of the principal characters afterwards. I was a bit surprised there was nothing mentioned of the famous "boy heroes", Mexican cadets, that lost their lives when Chapultepec fell. I had forgotten how much I enjoy reading Shaara's books. This is the fourth of his that I have read, and I really like how he approaches historical fiction. This book covers the little discussed Mexican Gone for Soldiers: A Novel of the Mexican War and follow Shaara's trademarked style of having each chapter told from the perspective of an historical figure. The majority of chapters in this book are done through Winfield Scott and Robert E. Lee, with a few chapters at the end dealing with the attack on Mexico City being told through the eyes of Grant, Jackson, and Longstreet. The War itself involved only a few large battles, so the story focused quite a few chapters on Lee's scouting ability. I found it interesting, but it did seemed to be stretched out a bit at times. I really enjoyed reading about three things The Mexican War that I did not know much about. Winfield Scott, a towering historical figure I also did not know much about. The background stories for many of the major figures of the Civil War. Like Killer Angels, this is a personal look at the conduct of the War with Mexico, particularly focused on the young leaders that would be critical in the US Civil War. An excellent overview of the war without being too detailed. Like Shaara's other books, this is a personal view of warfare, with emphasis on the warfare. I have read all of Mr. Shaara's novels, this one is a bit below them since it does not flow as smooth, and I got the feeling that he took too much "liberties" with the characters. There is no way for us to know exactly what was said, and who was thinking what, but I felt he went a little beyond his "Gods and Generals", and "The Last Full Measure" being much more free with historical characters. Shaara did justice to General Scott, who to this day does not get the credit he deserved, but I think he got a bit confused with the character of R. Lee in his youth. All in all, I really enjoyed reading the book and if you enjoyed this author's Gone for Soldiers: A Novel of the Mexican War works, you'll enjoy this one also. Here at Walmart.

  • THE ALL-IN-ONE AUDIOBOOK Hot on Johnston’S Trail Are Two of the Union’S Best Generals: the Relentless Ulysses Grant and Don Carlos Buell
    It’s the spring of 1862. The Confederate Army in the West teeters on the brink of collapse following the catastrophic loss of Fort Donelson. Commanding general Albert Sidney Johnston is forced to pull up stakes, abandon the critical city of Nashville, and rally his troops in defense of the Memphis and Charleston Railroad. THE ALL-IN-ONE AUDIOBOOK Hot on Johnston’s trail are two of the Union’s best generals: the relentless Ulysses Grant and Don Carlos Buell. If their combined forces can crush Johnston’s army and capture the railroad, the war in the West likely will be over. There’s just one problem: Johnston knows of the Union plans, and is poised to launch an audacious surprise attack on Grant’s encampment—a small settlement in southwestern Tennessee anchored by a humble church named Shiloh. Bestselling author Jeff Shaara takes us inside the maelstrom of Shiloh as no novelist has before. Drawing on meticulous research, he dramatizes the key actions and decisions of the commanders on both sides. Here too are the thoughts and voices of the junior officers, conscripts, and enlisted men who gave their all for the cause. By the end of the first day of fighting two major events—both totally unexpected—will turn the tide of the battle and perhaps the war itself. JEFF SHAARA is the New York Times bestselling author of The Final Storm, No Less Than Victory, The Steel Wave, The Rising Tide, To the Last Man, The Glorious Cause, Rise to Rebellion, and Gone for Soldiers, as well as Gods and Generals and The Last Full Measure—two novels that complete the Civil War trilogy that began with his father’s Pulitzer Prize–winning classic, The Killer Angels.
