Never Call Retreat : Lee and Grant: The Final Victory
Traces the events surrounding the pivotal battle of August 1863, during which Lee and Grant both cross the Susquehanna and make decisions that culminate in the war's outcome.
"In August, 1863, Lincoln and Grant are facing a collapse of political will to continue the fight to preserve the Union. Lee, desperately short of manpower, must conserve his remaining strength while maneuvering for the killing blow that will take Grant's army out of the fight and, at last, bring a final and complete victory for the South. Pursuing the remnants of the defeated Army of the Potomac up to the banks of the Susquehanna, Lee is caught off balance when news arrives that Grant, in command of more than seventy thousand men, has crossed that same river. As Grant brings his Army of the Susquehanna into Maryland, Lee's Army of Northern Virginia maneuvers for position. The two armies finally collide in Central Maryland, and a bloody week-long battle ensues along the banks of the Monocacy River. This must be the "final" battle for both sides."
