With On to Petersburg, Gordon C. Rhea completes his much-lauded background of the Overland Plan, some Civil War fights fought between Generals Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee in southeastern Virginia in the planting season of 1864. On to Petersburg employs the Union army's motion to the Wayne River, the armed service response from the Confederates, and the initial assault on Petersburg, which Rhea implies marked the real end of the Overland Plan. Beginning his profile in the immediate aftermath of Grant's three-day episode on Confederate troops at Cold Harbor, Rhea argues that the Union general's main aim had not been - as often supposed - to use Richmond, but rather to eliminate Lee's army by concluding off its retreat routes and disrupting its resource chains. While Grant struggled sometimes to communicate proper goals to his subordinates and to adapt his army to a faster-paced, more flexible style of warfare, Rhea suggests that the general effectively shifted the armed service landscaping in the Union's favour.
