Shiloh 1862,
The Death of Innocence by James
Arnold
The first major battle in the Western Theatre of the American Civil
War, Shiloh came as a horrifying shock to both public and army. For the
first time they had an idea of the terrible price that would be paid for
the preservation of the Union. On 6 April 1862 General Albert Sidney
Johnston caught Grant by surprise and very nearly defeated him. Somehow
the federals hung on and the next day managed to drive back the hordes of
grey-clad rebels. Shiloh would be the benchmark for the next three years
of bloody war.
