The Promotions of the Civil Conflict series was actually released by Charles Scribner's Sons in 1881-1883. A landmark of Civil Conflict history, the series remains of willing interest to historians, re-enactors, and other Civil Conflict enthusiasts for its precise accounts of armed service and political affairs, as well as its portrayals of the troops and statesmen who waged the turmoil. From Fort Henry to Corinth by M. F. Power is the next of 12 volumes in this series. Publisher, soldier and later Medal of Honor receiver Power offers a meticulously rendered accounting of several major battles that took place during the first weeks of 1862, describing in minute detail the strength and placement of forces under Union and Confederate commanders and the tactics and strategies applied on the battlefield by Generals Grant, Johnston, Beauregard, Buell, Wallace, while others. Among the battles explained in From Fort Henry to Corinth will be the siege of Fort Donelson in Tennessee, in which a then relatively obscure Brigadier Basic Ulysses S. Grant earned the sobriquet "Unconditional Surrender" Grant, and the bloody carnage of Shiloh, where the south suffered the loss of Basic Albert Sidney Johnston and an eventually devastating military defeat.
