Introduction to Shiloh

[David Ireland]

What was the tactical significance of the Battle of Shiloh?

David here is the link to Winston Groom explaining the importance of Shiloh far better than I could. It is a great thread.

Thank you sir

David here is another excellent thread for you to study a book review of Larry J. Daniel's noteworthy book
"Shiloh - The Battle That Changed the Civil War" by Larry J. Daniel
I highly recommend it!

You should also consult and read Timothy H. Smith's outstanding scholarship on Shiloh. David.

I have been searching for a photo of my Illinois relative who was killed at Shiloh. On Jan. 5/62, he writes that they just left Sedalia and were now at Famine Bridge. He says he had his photo taken and sent home. He made fun of the photo and said it had a green tint. Any photo seach suggestions? I also wonder about the green tint photo.

Unfortunately, James N., the thread you provided is a broken link. The other two connect. Thanks,
