During the American Civil War, the steam train was as revolutionary a military tool as the helicopter was in Vietnam. Not only could rail-mobile troops be delivered into battle faster than ever before, but trains in the Civil War were adapted to serve as ambulances and as artillery platforms, and both sides fought fiercely over these strategic lifelines. From the famous rail batteries immortalized in The General to the little-known uses of railroads - including for reconnaissance and as hot-air balloon carriers - this book examines the fascinating story of America's first mechanized war, illustrated with stunning colour paintings and rare photography. |
