Confederate CentricBy Jason CoffeyI purchased this book in hopes that it would be a Confederate centric addition to my collection about the American Civil War in the Southwest. I was not disapointed; as the lack of illustration was made up for by seamless novelization.It starts with a post-war quote from Captain Teel; the well respected Confederate Artillery Commander of the Sibley Brigade. And then it takes some serious time to delve into what the men were told; what Sibley wanted; and what President Davis wanted. It opens up a discussion on Confederate manifest Destiny; and the process of copying what worked for Winfield Scott during the Mexican-American war.The book spends a good quarter or third setting up the invasion and discussing the units and personalities involved. It reads like a story; and less like a history lesson. Through the book the author is careful to also tie in events that are occuring "back east" to help readers place what is occuring. He naturally discusses the battles in the campaign overall; and gives detail from the diaries of the soldiers; and some of the general orders.He spends some quality time discussing the hard decision that Sibley and Green made to evacuate Albuquerque; and their choices on the retreat back to Texas. An entire chapter is deadicated to the disasterous rout back to San Antonio; and no punches are held about the fiasco. Frazier wraps up the book with a great chapter "Echos of Empire" that spends time talking about the Confederate rear guard for the Brigade; and the ultimate failure of Baylor to re-launch the campaign later on.This book is for more than the historian; but also is great any historical reenactor portraying the Confederate Units from Sibley's Brigade. It is also a good referance for a tabletop wargamer who is assembling a rebel unit from the conflict - this work will give you a better feel of what you are working on.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. About a third too longBy Brian AllenThe book clearly suffers from "academic syndrome" and is about a third longer than it ought to have been. I good editor (from a publishing house; not a colleague in the history or english dept.) would have helped tremendously with the preponderance of superfluous data and repetition.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.
