My new book, Gettysburg's Southern Front: Opportunity and Failure at Richmond, is available for preorder from University Press of Kansas (and elsewhere).
"Gettysburg’s Southern Front by Hampton Newsome illuminates Union efforts to threaten Richmond while Robert E. Lee was invading Pennsylvania. It does so with commendably thorough research, clear writing, and useful analysis about why and how this sideshow was planned and executed and why its results fell short of what was expected. It is a model study of a small, unknown operation of the Civil War.”" —Earl J. Hess, author of Pickett’s Charge--The Last Attack at Gettysburg
