Reviews
"Given how compulsively readable most of Osprey's adult-level books have always been, it's gratifying to see the publisher putting all that expertise to very good use in these 'PG-13' volumes. Right off the bat, so to speak, I was deeply impressed with how author Hama has managed to summarive ALL of the Civil War's basic causes within the boundaries of 600 words... ultra-tight prose is not necessarily lacking in grace!" -- Mike Dorn, The Wargamer, "Given how compulsively readable most of Osprey's adult-level books have always been, it's gratifying to see the publisher putting all that expertise to very good use in these "PG-13" volumes.

Synopsis
On 6 April 1862, Confederate forces staged a surprise attack on the Union army and began one of the American Civil War's bloodiest battles. The experiences of ill-prepared soldiers, moving personal accounts, and the personalities of the key protagonists, including the brave and determined General Grant, are brought together in this engrossing account of survival. For more information, please visit www.graphichistories.com, The first major Civil War battle in the Western theater, Shiloh came as a horrifying shock to both the American public and those in arms. On April 6, 1862, Confederate forces staged a surprise attack on the Union army encamped along the Tennessee River. Fighting was fierce as General Grant struggled to hold off the enemy until his reinforcements arrived the following day so that he could 'Whip 'em tomorrow'. Though nearly driven into the Tennessee River, the Union army could ultimately claim victory - won at a dear cost. With nearly 24,000 total casualties in two days' fighting, 'Bloody Shiloh' served as a wake-up call to the nation, announcing that the continuing fight for the Union would be devastating for both sides. Surprise Attack brings to life one of the Civil War's bloodiest battles in highly accessible graphic novel format. It also includes eight pages of authoritative background information placing Shiloh in its historical context, detailing the key players, and describing the build-up to the fighting and its aftermath.
