Summary: "Personal Recollections and Experiences Concerning the Battle of Stone River" by Milo S. Hascall is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the author's firsthand observations and experiences during the Battle of Stone River, also known as the Battle of Murfreesboro, a significant engagement in the American Civil War. Hascall, a former lieutenant in the U.S. Army and Brigadier-General of Volunteers, reflects on not only the battle itself but also the broader context of military command and the dynamics within the Army of the Cumberland. In this work, Hascal provides a detailed narrative of the events leading up to and during the battle, including his interactions with various military leaders, his assessment of their capabilities, and the strategic decisions made by both sides. He describes the intense combat, the conditions faced by soldiers, and his command decisions on the battlefield. Hascall critiques the leadership, particularly focusing on General Rosecrans and his decisions which led to a precarious situation for the Union forces. The account serves not only as a personal memoir but also as a commentary on military strategy and organizational dynamics in the heat of war, culminating in an exploration of the complexities and pitfalls faced by leaders in critical moments.
