After reading the studies published in both The Journal of the Civil War Era and Civil War History I have a far better understanding of the many different subfields that make up the historical study of the Civil War.

Clifford J. Rogers as an ‘artillery fortress revolution’. This development reversed the superiority of the offensive that had existed since the 1430s‚ and strategically the emphasis returned to the defensive‚ focusing on entrenchment on the battlefield and the use of the new fortifications which partially negated the effectiveness of early artillery.
