Stephens is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This comprehensive work chronicles the events of the American Civil War, capturing battles, military strategies, significant figures, and emotional narratives that offer insights into one of the most pivotal moments in American history. The book is richly embellished with over two hundred illustrations, enhancing its narrative and providing a visual representation of the conflict's intensity and scope. The opening of this volume sets the stage for the Union's efforts during May 1862, highlighting the determination and bravery of its soldiers despite setbacks like the defeat at Bull Run. It details the strategic movements of Union forces, particularly General McClellan's Army of the Potomac, as troops march toward Richmond while contending with the challenges posed by both the terrain and enemy forces. Key figures such as generals and regiments are introduced, along with vivid descriptions of battles and tactics, emphasizing the chaos and heroism that defined this period.
