About this product

Product Information

On March 14, 1862, Federal forces under the command of General Ambrose Burnside overwhelmed Confederate forces in the Battle of New Bern, capturing the town and its important seaport. From that time on, Confederates planned to retake the city. D.H. Hill and James J. Pettigrew made the first attempt but failed miserably. General George Pickett tried in February 1864. He nearly succeeded but called the attack off on the edge of victory. The Confederates made another charge in May led by General Robert Hoke. They had the city surrounded with superior forces when Lee called Hoke back to Richmond and ended the expedition. Author Jim White details the chaotic history of New Bern in the Civil War.

Reviews
"Local history enthusiasts will find a wealth of information in New Bern and the Civil War. Throughout the main narrative, White provides substantial detail for the units, commanders, and men who fought in the region. The book is interspersed with pictures, paintings, and engravings of the actors and events White portrays. There are also several maps and diagrams of the forts and landscapes to orient the reader and prevent the scores of place names from becoming overwhelming.

" Civil War Monitor "James White's well-composed descriptive accounts of the several attempts by Confederate forces to retake the strategically important port city of New Bern comprise a very welcome and largely satisfying attempt to fill in long-standing gaps in the North Carolina military history of the mid to late Civil War period. Recommended." Civil War Books and Authors " In total, his book outlines the four battles involving New Bern, including the capture and three subsequent attempts to wrestle it back into the Confederate fold. He is the winner of the Willie Parker Peace History Book Award and the Claude Hunter Moore Journal Award, presented by the North Carolina Society of Historians."
