Cozzens' work is one of my favorite looks at the vicious battle that took place there.<br /><br />Also, John Pope's fascinating account of the march and 'siege' of Corinth is slightly comical in its depiction of Halleck and definitely whetted my appetite to read a more detailed account of the whole strange operation.

I had the same reaction you did - "finally!" Tim also said that he does a lot with the post battle occupation of Corinth, so that should be very interesting. <br /><br />My own work - yes I do plan on turning it into a book, although I am still several years away from Chris Slocombenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16471073.post-2655716089248993312011-11-20T20:16:57.527-08:002011-11-20T20:16:57.527-08:00Thanks for writing, Chris.

I remember corresponding with him around 1999 when I was working on my Corinth computer simulation, and am glad to see it finally coming to fruition.<br /><br />About your own work, are you planning to turn your siege study into a book?DW@CWBAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00018056113264346047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16471073.post-40871959516454744762011-11-20T19:09:46.144-08:002011-11-20T19:09:46.144-08:00I've was in touch with Tim about his Corinth p...I've was in touch with Tim about his Corinth project a year or so ago after I inquired about it. I am well into working on a comprehensive tactical study of the siege, so I was curious as to how detailed he gets. <br /><br />Tim told me that the book will deal with Corinth during the entire war, but focus heavily on the important year of 1862.
