Note: Unlike a book, websites are not a good format for presenting long narratives or analysis of complex subjects. The explanations of the battle dynamics found here are meant only to satisfy your curiosity. Think of them as the "People Magazine" version of the battle. For a good read on this all important first battle of the war, check out the book itself.
