Jermann’s Fitz-John Porter, Scapegoat of Second Manassas: The Rise, Fall and Rise of the General Accused of Disobedience, implies the book is military biography. Yet, the preface says otherwise. Here, Jermann makes it clear “this work is note a mere recounting of events, and not just a biography of General Porter.” (1). More succinctly it is an examination of what Jermanncalls the court martial of century. How did the Battle of Second Manassas lead to this proceeding and what was the outcome. Fitz-John Porter is at the heart of the story, but very little biographical is provided. RAPIDили IFOLDER 0
