Book Description
1880. As a division commander under James Longstreet, he distinguished himself at Antietam, Fredericksburg, and Gettysburg and at Chickamauga, where he won his lieutenant generalcy. In the Atlanta campaign of 1864 he fought under Joseph E. Johnston until Jefferson Davis, displeased with that general's retreat, made Hood commander. Hood fared no better against General Sherman and was obliged to abandon Atlanta. Hood pressed forward in his effort to thwart the Union forces, but in the battle of Nashville Thomas won the most complete victory of the war, virtually annihilating the Confederates. Hood resigned his command and surrendered at Natchez, Mississippi. General Hood's memoir, Advance and Retreat is one of the classics of Confederate literature.

"It's All My Fault" - If Only John Bell Hood Had Said So.......2005-11-08
After his decisive defeat on the third day at Gettysburg, General Robert E. Lee, as he rode among his men, was widely quoted as saying, "It's all my fault. It is I that have lost this fight, and you must help me out of it the best way you can. All good men must rally." If only John Bell Hood had emulated his hero General Lee and accepted responsibility for the defeats at Franklin and Nashville, history would have been more sympathetic. Hood's defensive memoir, titled Advance and Retreat, is remarkable in what is not said.
My copy of Advance and Retreat is a 1985 publication of The Blue and Grey Press. The first 68 pages provide a record of John Bell Hood's experiences up to the day that he reported for duty in the Army of Tennessee. The next 92 pages are Hood's detailed reply to General Johnston's criticism of Hood himself. The remaining chapters - Siege of Atlanta, Atlanta Untenable, Correspondence with Sherman on the Rules of War, Campaign to the Alabama Line, and Tennessee Campaign - are Hood's account of the disastrous period July through December, 1864.
The final chapter titled Rashness - Johnston - Fabius - Scipio are Hood's reply to Sherman's pointed criticism: "I did not suppose that General Hood, though rash, would venture to attack fortified places like Allatoona, Resaca, Decatur, and Nashville; but he did so, and in so doing, played into our hands perfectly."
John Hood was an ambitious man of great courage and valor that was promoted beyond his capability. The Confederacy was desperately searching for leaders in that summer of 1864 that could resist the inexorable Union tide. But how could any leader, even another Stonewall Jackson, have avoided defeat? Hood's tragedy was that he received what he coveted: leadership of the Army of Tennessee.
John Hood's surprisingly well-written memoir, Advance and Retreat, is mandatory reading for anyone that studies the Civil War. I strongly suggest, however, that you first read John Bell Hood and the War for Southern Independence, an exceptional biography by Richard M. McMurry published by The University Press of Kentucky (1982). McMurry is sympathetic, but his in depth analysis provides valuable context setting for John Bell Hood's memoirs.
For those who enjoy Civil War historical fiction, I also recommend the short novel, Nashville 1864, by Madison Jones.
Hood's story and his denials.......2005-07-02
John Bell Hood, perhaps one of south's finest brigade and division commanders, perhaps one of south's worst army commanders, his life is one of great irony. A classical example of a man who was promoted into total incompetency, Hood's memoirs reflects his thoughts and his views on his military career. He spent much of his writing defending himself and his tactics and strategies. His book may be considered to be one of your classical Civil War memoirs which was written not for history's sakes but for reputation's sake. In doing so, his failures wasn't his' but those of others. As one previous reviewers wrote, Hood retreated from the truth to make his case.
Nevertheless, the book remains quite readable, somewhat interesting and informative if only to see what Hood was trying to do and hope to do in retrospect. He could have been suffering from post tramatic stress syndrome as his actions seem to be more erratic as his wounds continued with the war.
Hood, the Gallant Confederate.......2005-02-26
John Bell Hood has been called everything from a gallant hero to a drug-addicted fool. The truth lies somewhere in between. MANY false truths have been all too easily accepted as fact by historians and Civil War enthusiaths alike, and I personally think he doesn't deserve such a negative stigma.
Most all would agree that hood was a better Brigade and Division commander than he was a commander of the Army of Tennessee (his stint as a Corps commander during the early stages of the Atlanta campaign do not show him to be one way or the other, due to the fact that any General can direct his men to fall back, erect Breastworks, and fall back again). However, part of this is due to the fact that as Hood rose in rank, time passed, and the hopes of a Confederate victory waned. Even Robert E. Lee himself would have been hard pressed to turn the 1864 Tennessee campaign into a sucess.
Hood loved his troops. It is an absolute lie to say that he did not care about his men's lives. After nearly every battle in which he fought, Franklin included, he was seen to be weeping uncontrollably, grieving over the loss of his men. The men of his famed Texas "Brigade" held a special place in his heart.
The book is not a straightforeward telling of John Bell Hood's career; the book is written from a point of view. Therefore, it tends to lean towards that point of view. What do you expect a man to say, "I was a horrible commander"? It is still a good read, worth any Civil War buff's time and money. It is especially usefull if you are looking to better understand the thought process of John Bell Hood.
To me, John Bell Hood is a unique Civil War soldier. He gave body and soul (especially body) for his cause, and whether you agree with the cause, or his descisions as a soldier, you have to respect him for that.
"Hood's retreat"...from the truth!.......2005-02-22
Although this book is very useful if you're wanting to learn more about Gen. John Bell Hood, the fact remains that it is a very bitter memoir lashing out against his enemies (especially Joseph Johnston) while fiercely defending his outdated, suicidal tactics that he used as an officer throughout his military career.
Even in his youth there were clear signs that Hood was not cut out to be a military genius. At West Point he "earned" 196 demerits and came close to being expelled. He lost 25% of his command (2nd Cavalry) fighting Comanche warriors on Devil's River, Texas, in 1856. At the Battle of Second Bull Run, his Texas brigade suffered a staggering 42% in casualties. At the Battle of Antietam, his division was virtually wiped out, with only 318 surviving. And then came his bloody frontal assaults he ordered against Gen. Sherman's army during the Atlanta campaign.
As if Hood's record wasn't bad enough, his Fall, 1864 invasion of Tennessee ended in total destruction of the once proud Army of Tennessee. First, there's the dismal failure to defeat Schofield's army at Spring Hill. Then there was the brutal slaughter of nearly 1,700 Confederate soldiers at Franklin. There are many puzzling questions about Hood's leadership at Franklin. Why did he attack with only two corps, instead of waiting for Gen. Stephen D. Lee and his 8,000 troops? Why didn't he wait for all his artillery to arrive before ordering the attack? Why didn't he order an attack on Schofield's weak flanks instead of his heavily defended center?
Gen. Hood wrote that the reason he didn't wait for the artillery was because he didn't want to risk shelling innocent civilians that lived in Franklin. This is ridiculous, however, because the two batteries that were available (only one for each of Hood's attacking corps!) for the attack were heavily used during the battle. This is only one of many times that Hood avoided the truth in his memoirs.
After butchering his command at Franklin, Hood led his army into complete disaster at the Battle of Nashville. Finally, Hood offered his resignation (it was easily accepted) following this failiure, but the damage to the Army of Tennessee had been done.
Gen. Hood is indeed a tragic figure of the Civil War, representing the badly outdated infantry tactics of the era as well as the careless bravery that so many officers possessed. Some diehard supporters of Hood stand by his actions and point to his unquestionable courage. But in my opinion, what's the point of being a brave officer if you place no value on the lives of your men? Overall, I recommend this book merely for the purpose of better understanding Gen. Hood's character.
It was Joe Johnstons fault!.......2004-09-02
A good narrative from JB Hood but lets face it..There was no excuses for the Hood ordered frontal suicide attack at Franklin! Most of his subordinate commanders including the great Patrick Cleburne himself advised against it. As the previous reviewer pointed out, most of Hood's book is in answer to post war charges from Joe Johnston in his own book. Hood himself stated that he felt the AOT was weak in the fact that they had become accustomed to the defense of breastworks. Take a look at the losses to the AOT in Atlanta as Hood orders them out of their own defensive breast works to attack Sherman's forces. Atlanta fell. It just got worse in Tennessee. Hood's glory days were in the east in the ANV as a brigade commander. It's a good a read and I recommend. Howevere don't assume because Hood was there, this book the final word.
Book Description
Imagine what Sundays in a parish could be if worshiping communities are assured that the liturgy in their spaces might be a foretaste of the heavenly liturgy. Or what town-hall meetings could also be in a place where parish committees are inspired to know that they can be the instruments of truth and beauty. The essays in Building from Belief focus on Catholic church architecture and invite those who are involved in the creation of worship space to be "the world's memory of what beauty looks like, and what sanctity feels like."
In Building from Belief, Michael DeSanctis treats a variety of topics that concern the creation and use of liturgical space. He brings the historical development of both the Church and its architecture into clear view and focuses on the need for catechesis and conversion. DeSanctis calls for a change of heart on the part of the worshiping community, the building committee, professionals involved in the design process, and of the Church. By keeping the theological concepts of grace and sacramentality in mind, he offers rich insights to these fundamental Christian realities and provides hope and excitement about using the gifts of beauty, grace, and holiness.
The essays in Building from Belief are an invitation to build the promised kingdom, allowing the grace of God into our hearts and in our spaces. DeSanctis encourages those who embark on the journey of building to ask the same question that the Fathers of Vatican II asked: how to be Church in a modern world. He shows that the worship that rises from our communities is indeed a true expression of that belief.
Chapters under Part I are "Beauty, Holiness and Liturgical Space," "Catholic Sacramentality and the Reform of Sacred Architecture," "The Pastoral Dimension of Church Renovation," "Let's Stop Renovating Church Buildings (And Start Renovating the Church)," and "Coming to Terms with Modern Design." Chapters under Part II are "Worshiping in 'Noplace': Casual Observations on Liturgy in the Second Machine Age," "Images By Which We Live and Build," and "The Quest for 'Noble Simplicity.'" Includes eight pages of full-color photographs with black-and-white photographs and illustrations throughout.

Building From Belief.......2003-02-21
Michael DeSanctis is a writer who speaks from his soul. His book like his persona is larger than life.
He communicates the notion that we Catholics fail to ignore-the purpose of "Church" and that of communal prayer. His vast knowledge of liturgical space, sacred art and architecture is astounding.
As a Catholic I read this book with great interest.
Building from Belief put a lot of things into perspective for me-it is not "my Mass" or "my Church" but that of everyone in the congregation. A church without believers is just a building just the way that a house without a family is not a "home".
His vision for Church design in the new millenium is not only beautiful but also "soul stirring". It exemplifies the notion of worshipping as a community.
Gannon University and Erie are lucky to have him.
The balance between modern design and centuries of tradition.......2002-10-05
Building From Belief: Advance, Retreat, And Compromise In The Remaking Of Catholic Church Architecture by Michael E. DeSanctis (Associate Professor of Fine Arts, Gannon University) is an informed and informative descriptive analysis of Catholic church architecture in the United States. Black-and-white photographs provide a visual correspondence to these carefully worded ruminations on the balance between modern design and centuries of tradition. Building From Belief is a unique contribution to Catholic Studies, and very highly recommended for its projected views regarding Catholic church construction, as well as DeSanctis' arguments for a comprehensive liturgical catechesis.
Book Description
It is over twenty years since Jared Diamond focused attention on the possible existence of assembly rules for communities. Since then there has been a proliferation of studies trying to promote, refute, or test the idea that there are sets of constraints (rules) on community formation and maintenance (assembly). This timely volume brings together carefully selected contributions which examine the question of the existence and nature of assembly rules with some rigor and in some detail, using both theoretical and empirical approaches in a variety of systems. The result is a balanced treatment which encompasses a wide range of topics within ecology including competition and coexistence, conservation and biodiversity, niche theory, and biogeography. As such it provides much to interest a broad audience of ecologists, while also making an important contribution to the study of community ecology in particular.

History with Find and Replace.......2004-03-25
This is not Turtledove's best work -- in fact it is one of his weakest. He has simple taken actual history and done a find and replace, changing north to south, east to west, and most character and place names with puns (some obvious, as Nathen Bedford Forrest = "Ned of the forest"; some rather more obscure as New York = "New Eborac" {old english place name for the site of York}) This game of name replacement seems to be the main point of the book, and might have supported a short story, but not three novels.
The puns draw from a wide set of languages and references, although this causes a linguastic mishmash in the resulting names, with no internal explanation.
The magic is a simialr find and replace of technology, with no consideration given to how actual magic would change things.
I think the author should have done a straight historical novel about the Civil war, skipping the replacements of names and tech. this would have been a rather better book, IMO.
Great Writer but merely a Very Good Book.......2004-01-03
This is the sequel to Marching Through Peachtree and it is a serviceable addition to Harry Turtledoves repertoire of alternate history or thinly veiled historical fantasy novels.
This book and its predecessor are very good in the sense that any of Harry's full-length novels are a love it or hate it relationship. Either you love a historical perspective with a high degree of descriptive writing or you hate it. This being said I think this particular series of Mr. Turtledoves is turning out to be my least favorite of his many ongoing series. Maybe it is because it is a basic retelling of the American Civil War through the eyes of its Generals and in a few cases common soldiers. The Civil War has been rehashed perhaps more then any other time in alternative fiction and this time since Harry did not change the order of events there was little to surprise us. A little magic was thrown in and generals had last names like Heated Ham and other silly names. A good book but one without any true innovation. The South was the North in the book and the North the South. The swarthy invaders play the part of Caucasians in our world and "blonds" reprise the role of African slaves in our world.
An interesting book but one that does not quite measure up to his other works. What this book lacked is what Harry does so well. That is to take a chain of historical events and twist them and show us the outcome. This is more like reading a retired generals memoirs in our world and changing the names. I bought it and don't regret it and would gladly pay hardcover prices again but I look forward to his other works more.
Last book in a weaker series.......2003-02-27
Harry Turtledove is an excellent writer of alternative history. That genre deals with a divergence from our own history, by changing one or more events, and then surmising what would follow. His recent "Ruled Brittania" concerns what England would be like after the success (instead of the failure) of the Spanish Armada, and eventual invasion of England by the Spaniards.
This book is not alternative history. Advance and Retreat, the third book in the "Detina" series, is Altered History. Turtledove takes real US Civil War history, maps it into a new fantasy world, and retells the story with magic instead of technology and monarchy replacing democracy. In Detina, South is our North, East is our West, and both people and places have names that are excuses for punnery. Thus, the Cumbersome River (instead of Cumberland) or Summer Mountain (which is really Spring Hill). Some of the names are easy to figure out (Peachtree = Georgia), some require knowledge of Latin, Greek or Hebrew (Parthenia = Virginia, King Avram = Abraham Lincoln), some are cutesy (Peterpaulandia = Maryland), others are completely baffling (New Eborac = New York, Dothan = Alabama).
Turtledove does some things well in this book. The story is engaging, the battle scenes are riveting, and the characters are fascinating (for the most part). Even knowing how the events will turn out, since it corresponds with the US Civil War in 1865, I never lost interest. Even when Turtledove tells us sixty times that Doubting George isn't ready to invade, or Bell used to be a mighty warrior before he lost an arm and a leg, I kept going.
But some things are done poorly. Turtledove loved the punning more than keeping his world consistent, and many of the names simply rang false. Some walked out of Masterpiece Theatre, like Duke Edward of Arlington and Ned of the Forest, others arrived from mysterious lands with odd tongues (Generals Hesmucet and Peegeetee), yet no mention was ever made of this linguistic clash. At least in Turtledove's "Darkness" series, which is a similar fantasy remapping of World War II, each of the countries has consistant people and place names within their own borders.
While deciphering the puns and anagrams can be fun, they should not get in the way of the story. Yet the names do clash, a continual reminder that this novel is simply a retelling of a different land, far away. And one of the important parts of the story does not map correctly, for Turtledove has created swarthy "Detinans" from across the Western Ocean, who have defeated and enslaved native "blonds." More blonds remain, on on the other side of the Great River (Mississippi) -- ah, you see the problem! He's amalgamated Africans and Native Americans into one people! This off-note jars in an otherwise faithful (though upside-down) retelling of American history.
Recommended for Turtledove fans and Civil War buffs. Others take your chances.
Rambling On Down to Ramblerton.......2003-02-16
Advance and Retreat (2002) is the third novel in the War Between the Provinces fantasy series, following Marching Through Peachtree. This series closely reflects the events of the American War Between the States, but uses dramatic license to create thoughts and words for the characters. Moreover, it uses punny names for persons and places and reverses most everything from directions to uniform colors.
This volume covers the period after the fall of Atlanta to Sherman through the destruction of the Army of Tennessee as an effective force. It portrays the generals on both sides as human beings with both strengths and weaknesses. While the characterizations are frequently based on the remaining documents of that period, nobody now or then knows for sure what went on in the privacy of these minds. Some traits are fairly well established from documentary evidence, but others are more like SWAGs. Read some of the many published histories and biographies covering this period and make your own guess.
Certain characters are treated more sympathetically in this novel -- i.e., George Thomas and Bedford Forrest -- than they were by their own professional peers; both displayed a competency that was not acknowledged by their ultimate commanders. On the other hand, Hood was totally belittled by his superiors, yet regained his reputation by blowing his own horn in his memoirs and speeches.
This novel is fun, but can be frustrating if you aren't a Civil War buff. Some of the punny names are really obscure. Nevertheless, I still wish Harry Turtledove would write nonfictional history books. Maybe a study guide for this series?
Recommended for Turtledove fans and all alternate history buffs who also like fantasy.

THE CIVIL WAR THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS.......2003-01-01
Science Fiction since its inception has speculated about time travel and the possibility of changing the present by meddling in the past. Harry Turtledove writes about radically altered pasts without resort to time machine in a genre known as "alternate history". Blurbs on his books proclaim him to be the master of this genre. In support of that title he has had two hefty tomes published in as many months by two different publishers. Ruled Britannia is the more conventional of the two, working from a single "what if..." premise, i.e. that the Spanish armada had succeeded in 1588 in subjugating England. Advance and Retreat is the fourth book in Turtledove's "war between the provinces" series which projects events in the US Civil War through a very convoluted looking glass.
The agricultural northern provices of Detina are battling to establish a nation separate from the industrial southern provinces. Grand Duke Geoffrey has been named king of the north where blonds are enslaved. King Avram rules the south from the Black House. The east is a wilderness peopled by savages while most of the population of the warring regions live along the edge of the western ocean. For good measure, medieval weaponry (like crossbows) replace Civil War muskets and wizards with magic substitute for 19th century technology. It is a clever conceit.
Turtledove coyly claims any resemblance to historical persons and places is coincidental, but the book's title just happens to match that of a memoir by Confederate General John Bell Hood of Texas. The real names of Civil War figures and places are transformed by pun and transposition. Decoding them will keep civil war buffs, already familiar with the events described, occupied and happy. The commander-in-chief of the southern armies is Marshall Bart (Grant's middle name was Simpson). He has Edward of Arlington (Lee) bottled up in the trenches around Pierreville (Petersburg). General Hesmucet (Sherman's middle name was Tecumseh)is marching through Peachtree province toward the western seaport of Veldt (Savannah). You get the idea.
Meanwhile, in the eastern theater of war (locus of Advance and Retreat), southern General Doubting George (George Thomas) has replaced General Guildenstern (Rosencrans). He must stop the advance of one-armed, one-legged General Bell (Hood) upon Ramblerville (Nashville). Bell's feared unicorn riders are led by Ned of the Forest (Nathan Bedford Forrest). The plot follows the 1864-65 campaign in Tennessee quite faithfully. Even without the Dungeons and Dragons element, it is a rip-snorting, action-packed story. Both commanders are tragic figures of Shakespearian proportion. Events are seen through the eyes of the commanders, their subordinates, and a handful of the common soldiers. Turtledove even slips in a twist about one of the northern foot soldiers, but readers familiar with classical mythology will have anticipated him.
Book Description
The numerous legal, moral, and social threats on the horizon in America have caused many Christians to wonder whether they can truly make a difference. Contrary to some current voices that have called for retreat, Janet and Craig Parshall explain why Christians must engage the culture as never before in order to fulfill the whole mission of the church. In The Light in the City, the Parshalls help readers understand the biblical basis for the need for Christians to be actively involved in the formation of public policy. Issues addressed in this book are as current as tabloid headlines. The Light in the City not only gives a biblical and historical basis for Christian involvement, but it also provides practical strategies and personal testimonies of encouragement.
Customer Reviews:
Christian Call to Action.......2003-11-27
In the tradition of Francis Schaeffer the Parshalls are calling for Christians to use their lives to turn on the light as a means of dispelling darkness by getting involved in all aspects of the culture. Actually Schaeffer wasn't the first one to come up with the idea, it was Jesus who told us to let our lights shine. They begin by pointing out that one's worldview impacts the actions and assumptions one has. A person with a Christian worldview will act based on the assumptions of that view, as a secularist will based on the worldview he holds.
The founding of America is described as a miracle. As citizens of a country blessed immensely by Him, we have a responsibility.
Documentation on references to God and Jesus are given. Various states' charters are cited in this section of the book. Various founders of the country are quoted also with solid and clear references to God and Jesus. The case made in this section is strong!
Accepting one's responsibility is not optional. We are accountable for the resources we've been given in our generation. Do the good works God has assigned in the various arenas of His choosing. This book helps you to see that every life makes a difference.
Education for All Christians.......2000-12-14
Janet and Craig's book The Light in the City is a must read educational tool for ALL Christians. Before you read this you might have some insecurity about being involved politically, after you read this, you won't have an excuse.
As a former Focus on the Family employee, myself, I can testify that what is in this book, regarding Christian persecution and media bias is true. What is most impressive about the Parshall's book, however is that they base EVERYTHING on the Scripture and the law. This is a strict apologetic defense for our faith, as well as why Christians MUST be involved in the culture. It IS our duty and responsiblity to shine our lights and reading this book is a great place to start.
One thing that I might note however, is that for the person who is not a real critical thinker, they might have some difficulty understanding what the Parshall's have written. I believe this book is written above a 5th grade level, so be forewarned that for some readers you might have to reread and take time to digest the material.
This is worth the time and definately the money. I think this so much, that I've bought more than one copy already. You go and do the same.
One final thought - after reading this book, you will fall on your knees, and that alone tells me that the authors have a passion and heart for our culture, as ALL professing a faith in Jesus Christ should have.
Rev. Thomas Pedigo.......2000-10-12
While some of the content of this book is time-sensitive with respect to the November 2000 election, it's still filled with meaty content for the conservative, Christian activist. The authors, Janet and Craig Parshall, provide substantial information in the following realms: historical, political, legal, theological, social, moral, and practical. Since Janet is the chief spokesperson for the Family Research Council, she offers unique insight for Christians who want to be involved in the cultural war waging in our nation. While some may label her work as "propaganda" for the "Religious Right," she is loving, respectful, and well-balanced in her presentation of the theological/philosophical spectrum and diversity within our society. At the same time, she (along with her husband) gives substantial examples and incidences of anti-christian bias and discrimination going on in our country - especially towards conservative evangelicals and fundamentalists. If you want to be a Christian activist but aren't sure what to do or how to do it, this book is well worth the price. And it needs to be read and applied...sooner rather than later!

Hood, a must read to truely understand his way of war.......2003-11-28
Hood memoirs are a must read if one want to place an opinion on the man. And truely understand his way of war. I am a big reader of civil war personal memoirs of genrals north and south, and i have just finished my 12th memoir by E P Alexander, as well as many battle books and essay compilations of the civil war. This personal memoir of Hood is at time a muddled read as he uses unorthodox names and refences as land marks (and for this i would first read Longstreet's Manassas to appomattox to help guide you through any problem areas, especially when Hood writes of the Seven days campain.) Hood battle discriptions are lively and generally accurate (not always). The real true prize of this book is the insite into Hood as a fighting man and his choice at the differebt levels of command he held. While Hood may not always give a full picture of some the views held by others at the time of him, but gives a solid account of choice and opinions and backs them very well with post war correspondence he collected to back many of his views and to clear up some misconceptions about is way of war. i hope u enjoy readin this book as much as i did.
