*by R***D on Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2018*

I have visited Chickamauga battle field several times and I never get enough. This book is a good detailed version of the battle up to and including Sept.. 19.It may be too detailed for someone who is not a big civil war student but for students of the war, this is a great book and I highly recommend it.

    David Powell Has Done It Again!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2014*

As a Civil War history buff who had an ancestor fight at Chickamauga, I've enjoyed reading as much as I can about this battle.  Unfortunately, while Chickamauga was the largest battle in the Western Theater and second in Civil War casualties only to Gettysburg, there has been a relative paucity of material written about this fascinating but often confusing conflict. Compared to Gettysburg, which has had hundreds of books written about all aspects of the 3-day fight, Chickamauga can claim only a smattering of books.  The two primary full-length modern treatments of the battle were Glenn Tucker's "Chickamauga: Blood Battle of the West" and Peter Cozzen's "This Terrible Sound: The Battle of Chickamauga" (part of his trilogy of western battles which also covered Stones River and Chattanooga).  Other worthwhile books include Steven Woodsworth's "Six Armies in Tennessee" (a campaign-level treatment), "The Chickamauga Campaign" (a compilation of essays, including one by Dave Powell), and "A Deep Steady Thunder" (a short battle summary); William Lee White's "Bushwhacking on a Grand Scale" (a short battle summary written by a National Park Service Ranger at Chick/Chatt NMP); the battlefield guides/tours by Matt Spruill and Robert L. Carter; and the excellent Blue & Gray magazine series written by the eminent historian of Chickamauga, William Glenn Robertson.And then up came David Powell.  A graduate of VMI, Dave has been studying the battle of Chickamauga for years and has compiled a vast collection of primary and secondary source material.  He has also spent many hours leading in-depth tours covering all parts of the Chickamauga battlefield and thus has become intimately familiar with the terrain, the personalities of the leaders involved, and the actions they directed, from the strategic view down to the unit tactical level. Based on his encyclopedic knowledge and wonderful storytelling abilities displayed in one of his battlefield tours I attended, when I heard he was writing a multi-volume treatment of the Chickamauga Campaign I knew it would be great.  This impression was enhanced by my reading of his two previously published books on Chickamauga, "Failure in the Saddle," which delves into the performance of the Confederate cavalry throughout the campaign, and "The Maps of Chickamauga" (maps by David Friedrichs), which walks the reader through the potentially confusing campaign with a large series of in-depth maps and accompanying narrative.Dave Powell's "A Mad, Irregular Battle," published by Savas-Beatie like his two previous works, not only meets but exceeds the extremely high standards set by "Failure..." and "Maps..."  Dave has the envious ability to produce a cogent battle narrative that ranges from strategic level implications to unit level actions and captivate the reader's attention throughout.  He also has the knack of adding just the right amount of detail to make the narrative clear and engaging but without getting bogged down in minutia.  But added to his fine writing ability, what makes his book first rate are his keen analysis and refreshing intellectual honesty.  Dave didn't accept on face value all the secondary material and post-war analyses of the battle but dug deep into the primary sources with an open mind, not limited by preconceived notions, and let the facts mold his conclusions.  His narrative therefore isn't just interesting reading but is scholarship of the finest sort, tamping down some old, hoary myths and bringing to light a new understanding of some key facets of the battle.  All this leads to "A Mad, Irregular Battle" setting the new standard in Chickamauga history.Savas-Beatie has done a great job of presenting Dave's book to the reader.  There are numerous maps and pictures which greatly assist in understanding the unit positions and the terrain features.  As I am a very visual learner, I would have enjoyed more maps, but then again, with Dave's "Maps of Chickamauga" alongside his soon-to-be-multivolume history, you have all the maps you could ever want.  I eagerly await the second book in the set, "Glory or the Grave," which will cover the end of the battle from Sep 20th to the faceoff of the Union and Confederate forces at Chattanooga.  Powell's third volume will be a compilation of additional facts, lists of sources, etc, that didn't fit into the narrative but that add even more substance to his historical analysis.Bottom line: If you are looking for an in-depth book on the Battle of Chickamauga, you can't get any better than David Powell's multivolume set.
