Volume 1: First Bull Run By William Messner-Loebs & Richard Rockwell

First Battle of Bull Run (Also known as Manassas), Virginia. (July 21, 1861) This was the first major battle of the Civil War. The union army marched from Washington, D.C. with the expectation that following this battle they would proceed to Richmond, Virginia, the Confederate capital, and end the war.

Instead, the Union army was defeated, the South had a new military here, General T.J. "Stonewall" Jackson, and the divided nation prepared for a prolonged and devastating war.
