The history is good; but the story is better. Seven Days in July immerses the reader in the personalities and decisions of the men in blue and gray in 1864 as a hardened Southern army continues to retreat to save Atlanta from the Union army's brutal; relentless advance. Command changes; personality clashes; low morale; and the constant presence of death and blood explode into a fight for Atlanta--a city Lincoln knew must fall to help the Union win the Civil War. As each maneuver; each thrust of attack; and the war is shown through the eyes of warriors on both sides; this book exposes the human perspective of the combat at Peachtree Creek and the Battle of Atlanta; bringing the facts of history to life. Although the physical landmarks are now fading and softening with age; this story brings into sharp focus the seven days in July that mark the turning point in the Western Theater of America's defining war.
