From Booklist:
The Civil War Army of the James spent most of its career under the ultimate command of Ben Butler, the quintessential amateur soldier, who was an excellent administrator but a poor field commander. It also suffered from a plethora of other commanders who could not get along with Butler or one another and from a lack of coordination with the Army of the Potomac. So the Army of the James seldom wrote any notable pages of battlefield history. Yet it managed to threaten Richmond several times, it provided the landing force that captured Fort Fisher in North Carolina, and it contained the largest percentage of African American soldiers of any army in the Union forces, including at one time an entire corps that, at the end of the war, marched into Richmond. Longacre's straightforward narrative history does justice to this army that hardly covered itself with glory but deserves to be rescued from obscurity. Roland Green
