Reviews
An instructive book about Civil War generalship that will engage and inform anyone interested in the dynamics of command from the perspective of those in charge."-- Library Journal, In this meticulously researched new book, a Civil War expert presents a refreshingly complex view of the matter - and rises to Meade's defense."-- Christian Science Monitor's Top 10 Books of June, In this meticulously researched new book, a Civil War expert presents a refreshingly complex view of the matter - and rises to Meade's defense."-- Christian Science Monitor, Meade at Gettysburg is an important contribution to Civil War literature...Brown's mastery of manuscript and published primary materials is immediately evident..His narrative recounts in astonishing granularity Meade's command decisions and those of his principal subordinates across the course of the campaign."-- Civil War Book Review, Brown breaks new ground on a topic that is well-trodden...dissected the summer of 1863 in a masterful fashion and offers a new interpretation of the event by focusing on the actions and decisions [of Meade]." - Pennsylvania Heritage, Meticulously researched and masterfully written." -- Civil War Monitor's Best Civil War Books of 2021, Brown is a good storyteller. His prose is engaging, and the book is difficult to put down."-- Emerging Civil War, Brown's book is the most thorough and authoritative study of Meade's generalship to appear in a generation, edging out even John Gregory Selby's excellent 2018 book "Meade: The Price of Command, 1863-1865" - but that command, at its moment of crisis, is still intensely up for debate."--Steve Donoghue, Christian Science Monitor

Synopsis
Commentators often dismiss Union general George G. Meade when discussing the great leaders of the Civil War. But in this long-anticipated book, Kent Masterson Brown draws on an expansive archive to reappraise Meade's leadership during the Battle of Gettysburg., Although he took command of the Army of the Potomac only three days before the first shots were fired at Gettysburg, Union general George G. Meade guided his forces to victory in the Civil War's most pivotal battle. Commentators often dismiss Meade when discussing the great leaders of the Civil War. But in this long-anticipated book, Kent Masterson Brown draws on an expansive archive to reappraise Meade's leadership during the Battle of Gettysburg. Using Meade's published and unpublished papers alongside diaries, letters, and memoirs of fellow officers and enlisted men, Brown highlights how Meade's rapid advance of the army to Gettysburg on July 1, his tactical control and coordination of the army in the desperate fighting on July 2, and his determination to hold his positions on July 3 insured victory. Brown argues that supply deficiencies, brought about by the army's unexpected need to advance to Gettysburg, were crippling. In spite of that, Meade pursued Lee's retreating army rapidly, and his decision not to blindly attack Lee's formidable defenses near Williamsport on July 13 was entirely correct in spite of subsequent harsh criticism. Combining compelling narrative with incisive analysis, this finely rendered work of military history deepens our understanding of the Army of the Potomac as well as the machinations of the Gettysburg Campaign, restoring Meade to his rightful place in the Gettysburg narrative.
