Mud, Blood & Cold Steel: The Retreat from Nashville, December 1864 takes a fresh look, for the first time with campaign and battle maps, at the unprecedented and brutal pursuit of the Army of Tennessee by Federal troops following the decisive Battle of Nashville. The non-stop action begins at Compton’s Hill and surges 120 miles in ten days over rugged terrain and in horrendous winter conditions to the final showdown between Wilson’s blueclad troopers and Forrest’s stubborn rearguard. This thrilling tale, written by historian Mark Zimmerman, author of Guide to Civil War Nashville, is told largely in the words of the participants themselves and draws from the research and opinions of other historians and authors. Well-organized chapters help explain the complicated flow of events as they happened. The 184-page book, which includes a foreword by James D. Kay, Jr., features 16 original maps, including eight battle maps, orders of battle, major characters, timeline, and bibliography. The combat includes The Battle at the Barricade, Hollow Tree Gap, West Harpeth, Richland Creek, Anthony’s Hill, and Sugar Creek. The book is meant to be a “detailed overview” of the campaign, accessible to Civil War scholars and general audiences alike. "Mark Zimmerman has been able to compile a concise overview of all the action, which is a very difficult task." James D. Kay Jr., President, Battle of Nashville Trust, Inc.
