Description

Hardcover, cloth in dust-jacket. 412pp., Essay on Sources, Index. Illustrated with photographs and maps. First edition thus, originally published by Oxford University Press in 1968. Dust-jakcet protected by reinforced mylar covers that have been pasted to inside of the front and rear boards. Not an ex-libris copy, from a private collection. No previous ownership marks. In addition to the perfunctory coverage of land and sea battles, Coffman looks at such things as the draft, how officiers were chosen and trained, and the performance of black troops. A very clean, square, unmarked copy. Near fine in a fine dust-jacket.
