| Summary | "Military Reminiscences of the Civil War, Volume 2: November 1863-June 1865" by Jacob Dolson Cox is a historical account composed in the late 19th century. The volume chronicles the author's experiences and observations as a major-general commanding the Twenty-Third Army Corps during the closing years of the Civil War, highlighting key military operations and command dynamics. The opening of the book sets the stage by discussing the critical transition in leadership as Ulysses S. Grant assumes command over the Western armies, specifically addressing the challenges inherent in the dual command structure of Rosecrans and Burnside. It details the strategic importance of Chattanooga, the logistics involved in the campaigns, and introduces the tensions and interactions among key military figures, including the shifting perceptions of Rosecrans' capabilities, the complexities of military organization, and the urgent need for decisive action as Confederate forces mobilize. Overall, this initial portion serves to establish the context and stakes of the unfolding military narrative, reflecting the intricacies of leadership and the fierce determination required to navigate the Civil War's tumultuous landscape.
