James M. McPherson has 4 past events. (show)  James M. McPherson War on the Waters: The Union and Confederate Navies, 1861-1865
 CANCELLED- James McPherson discusses and signs War on the Waters: The Union and Confederate Navies, 1861-1865 Although previously undervalued for their strategic impact because they represented only a small percentage of total forces, the Union and Confederate navies were crucial to the outcome of the Civil War. McPherson recounts how the Union navy's blockade of the Confederate coast, leaky as a sieve in the war's early months, became increasingly effective as it choked off vital imports and exports. Meanwhile, the Confederate navy, dwarfed by its giant adversary, demonstrated daring and military innovation. In War on the Waters, James M. McPherson has crafted an enlightening and thrilling account of the war's naval campaigns and their military leaders.
THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED. WE ARE SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE.
