Summary: A concise account of the Civil War's Bloodiest Day
Comment: "Antietam 1862: The Civil War's Bloodiest Day" by Norman S. Stevens is part of the "Classic Battles" series published by Osprey Military in England. Like all of the volumes in this series, "Antietam 1862" presents an assessment of each commander's campaign strategy, then provides the complete order of battle for each side, and then details the progress of the battle on almost a blow-by-blow level. The volume includes more than 90 illustrations including contemporary etchings and drawings, charts and color plates, and an excellent set of three-dimensional maps of the battle. There is even a complete transcript of Lee's Special Order, No. 191, which gave McClellan an opportunity for a complete victory that he barely managed to turn into a non-defeat. The book concludes with a brief guide to the Antietam battlefield today and detailed suggestions for war gamers. There are certainly more detailed descriptions of the Battle of Antietam (all of which are listed in the back of the book), but you are not going to find a more user-friendly book on how the bumbling Union army managed to halt Lee's first invasion of the North, setting the stage for Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. Stevens' volume is ideal for taking with you when you visit the actual battlefield.
