NF Fredericksburg Campaign

[jman17]

Hi all....I'm looking for suggestions on the best book for the overall Fredericksburg Campaign. I would like something that has some great in-depth detail. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!!

The Fredericksburg Campaign: Winter War on the Rappahannock by Francis O'Reilly. It is one of the best books I have EVER read.

I absolutely agree with James S. I really enjoyed reading it and agree with James that it is likely the best book on the Fredericksburg campaign. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0807131547/?tag=civilwartalkc-20

I agree with James S.! He beat me to post it and want to say I highly recommend; The Fredericksburg Campaign by Francis O'Reilly. It's extremely detailed and very well covered on this campaign.

Frank O'Reilly The Fredericksburg Campaign is excellent

I concur. There doesn't seem to be much competition.

Emething civil war did one on Fredericksburg if you are looking for a shorter overview book.

Having said that o'Reilly's is so good nobody else has done one on his scale.

Welcome to the forums from the host of the Stonewall Jackson Forum! These two older titles probably aren't detailed enough for you, but I enjoyed them both:

O'Reily's book is definitely worth reading!

Glowing review: "Unbelievable", "Awesome", "...can find no other without argument...the best."

And that is about your Introduction Page to the forum concerning O'Reilly's book. Unanimous was an unknown entity until now.

O'Reilly's book on fredericksburg and Hennessy's on 2nd Manassas are the hands down undisputed ones about big battles we have all agreed on here. They have no challengers on those topics
