How The North Won: A Military History of the Civil War (1991) By H. Hattaway and Archer Jones
 
An accessible history of Civil War strategy on both sides of the conflict
How the North Won offers the acolyte and the expert alike an elementary, instructive, readable military account of the American Civil War. Throughout, the authors thoroughly explain the basic concepts of war as well as its conduct, management, and support. Examples of concepts drawn from the actual conflict make clear what many authors assume readers already know. Hattaway and Jones emphasize strategy logistics over tactics to tell the military history of the war from the viewpoint of the commanders on both sides.
 
"Strategy, management, and execution weigh more than superior numbers and resources in dictating the outcomes of wars," the authors tell us, "and the Civil War is no exception. The weaker side can win." Hattaway and Jones show how the South almost did.
