Henry Halleck has not always fared well with historians. Anders, noted civil war expert, presents a Halleck whose cool-headedness in crisis, competence in military management, and unflinching fidelity to principle may not have won the war for Lincoln, but certainly helped keep him from losing it. "A fascinating book about an unlikely hero... Anders believes, and this reviewer agrees, that it is time to give some of Halleck's good name back to him."Anders, Curt is the author of 'Henry Halleck's War A Fresh Look at Lincoln's Controversial General-In-Chief' with ISBN 9781578600298 and ISBN 1578600294.
