Reviews

Author Diane Smith skillfully tells the story of Roebling's relationship with his father and with General Warren, as well as Washington's wartime service in this compelling pageturner. Profusely illustrated, the book is a welcome addition to the historiography of the Army of the Potomac and its leading personalities...Smith neatly keeps Roebling's personal story firmly grounded within the context of the larger battles and strategic initiatives of the Civil War.It is a job well done by this Maine-based prolific author and Fifth Corps expert. -Scott Mingus, York Daily Record
