Civil War Tactics

Civil War Tactics examines the evolution of military strategies during the American Civil War, highlighting the transformative impact of technological advancements and battlefield adaptations. It argues that the Civil War marked a pivotal moment in military history, where traditional Napoleonic tactics clashed with emerging technologies like rifled muskets and ironclad warships, forcing both the Union and Confederate armies to innovate. The book emphasizes that the Civil War’s strategic shifts weren't mere reactions to immediate threats, but represented a fundamental restructuring of military thinking that influenced subsequent conflicts.

The book unfolds by first introducing established military doctrines at the war's outset, such as linear formations and massed infantry assaults. It then analyzes how technological advancements disrupted these traditional tactics, detailing specific battles where new technologies rendered old strategies obsolete. Finally, the book investigates adaptive strategies developed by both sides, including trench warfare and the use of skirmishers, culminating in an assessment of the long-term implications of these changes on future military doctrine and warfare.
