Campaign to nowhere: The results of General Longstreet's move into upper East Tennessee

By David C. Smith

During the winter of 1863-64 Confederate General James Longstreet attempted to wrest control of Knoxville and East Tennessee from the Federal Army during the War Between the States. Army officer's battle reports from the many Volumes of 'Official Reports of The War of The Rebellion' have been added to the author's own research of each battle site location and digging of relics to bring this campaign up close and personal for the reader. Battle tactic maps, photos of battle and camp sites, photos of hundreds of relics found on site, biographies of the leaders of both sides, as well as the personal insight from a man who was born and raised among these skirmish locations. Include some heart rending personal stories of the soldiers themselves and you have an incredible 'better than fiction' account of the Campaign to Nowhere.
