Rafuse's review appears in the April 2010 issue of the Journal of Military History. Also, I think I may given an impression that overstates how much West Pointers and the Civil War
focuses on tactical issues; I also talk a good deal about the importance of army organization, ideological views of citizen soldiers, and my chapter on the secession crisis is in large part an examination of notions of duty and Unionism within the old army's officer corps.
