"On August 30, 1862, the Confederate army inflicted a smashing defeat to the Union at Manassas. Charismatic Major General Fitz-John Porter was charged with disobedience of orders and shameful conduct before the enemy. But was Porter really guilty or was it he who saved the country from an even greater disaster?"--Provided by publisher.
