Book synopsis

General John Pope: A Life for the Nation is the first full biography of one of the most outspoken and controversial figures to hold high command during the Civil War, Reconstruction, and in the American West. Renowned Civil War scholar Peter Cozzens has mined Pope's own memoirs and a wealth of other primary sources to uncover new information about his pre- and postwar career. The result is a monumental work that presents the complete picture of a complex man and gifted strategist. Peter Cozzens is a foreign service officer with the U. S. Department of State and author of the trilogy No Better Place to Die: The Battle of Stones River, This Terrible Sound: The Battle of Chickamauga, and The Shipwreck of Their Hopes: The Battles for Chattanooga, among other books.
