Meade's Army by David Lowe Book Summary

A first-person account of the last campaigns of the Civil War“Lt. Col. Theodore Lyman is already well-known to students and scholars of the Civil War for his extensive letters first published in 1922. As a member of General George Meade’s staff from September 1863 until the end of the war, Lyman provided colorful commentary on the inner workings of the Army of the Potomac.

His private notebooks document his keen observations. Published here for the first time, Meade’s Army: The Private Notebooks of Lt. Col.

As combat raged, Lyman penciled notations into his dispatch books, including exact times when Meade issued orders and when units deployed. He later transformed his notes into a coherent, historically accurate narrative, filling the account with personal and military details that few others were in a position to observe and including his sketches and hand-drawn maps...
