Book Description
In his study of the Vicksburg campaign, the author begins on March 29, 1863, when Ulysses S. Grant made his fateful decision to find an undefended landing spot on the Mississipi shore somewhere to the south of the city. In supporting the idea that the campaign grew out of a maze of interacting political, social, economic, geographic, military, and emotional considerations, he maintains that geography does not define who wins or loses, but only influences the ways in which campaigns and battles are waged. He illuminates the factors which participants weighed in making their decisions, thus providing insight on the decision-making process itself. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR

Book Description
Excerpt from In and About Vicksburg: An Illustrated Guide Book to the City of Vicksburg, Mississippi HE publishers offer no apology for the issuing of this little book. Its design is threefold. It presents to our residents a faithful, if discursive, historical sketch of our beautiful town, and thus preserves to our children a narrative of Vicksburg for the first half century of her existence. It offers to our visitors, whose numbers are annually increasing, and who will be with us by thousands during the coming Reunion of the Blue and Gray, a Guide that will enable them to learn all about us while here, and that they may preserve as a Souvenir of their visit. It, more than all, by its description of our business houses, of the resources and possibilities of the surrounding country, its amazing fertility, its means of access by rail and water, will Show to the outer world the advantages we offer to the immigration of both capital and labor. It will be circulated by thousands of copies in the great cities of the North, East and West, and thereby our city and people will be brought to the notice of the myriads who are always looking for congenial homes, and to the millions of capital always seeking safe and remunerative investments.
