		Evans's half brigade of Louisiana and South Carolina troops was the anchor on the left of a six-mile-long Confederate line confronting the federal advance toward Bull Run near Manassas, Va. Without hesitation, Evans, nicknamed "Shanks" for his thin legs, made the most important decision of the battle.
		Leaving only four companies to cover his position at the Stone Bridge over Bull Run, he led the remaining six companies of the 4th South Carolina and a battalion of Louisiana Tigers, a total of about 1,000 men, out beyond the Confederate left flank toward the rising clouds of dust.
		Evans did not know that the force he had set out to confront was actually the main body of the entire Union army, 18,000 soldiers that their commander, Gen. Irvin McDowell, had sent on a surprise attack on the Confederate flank.

		1st Bull Run, the opening battle of the Civil War, features two untrained armies, some exceptional and some truly poor leaders, and one of the best gaming situations in the war.

	P.G.T. Beauregard's Report of the Battle of 1st Bull Run (1st Manassas)
		The general direction of the crest of the plateau is oblique to the course of Bull Run in that quarter and to the Brentsville and turnpike roads, which intersect each other at right angles.
		To this may be legitimately added as a casualty of the battle the thousands of fugitives from the field, who have never rejoined their regiments, and who are as much lost the enemy's service as if slain or disabled by wounds.
		Added to these results may rightly be noticed here that by this battle an invading army, superbly equipped, within twenty miles of their base of operations, has been converted into one virtually besieged and exclusively occupied for months in the construction of a stupendous series of fortifications for the protection of its own capital.

	Amazon.com: Battle at Bull Run: A History of the First Major Campaign of the Civil War: Books: William C. Davis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Davis has written an interesting read on the Civil War's first major battle: the narrative is interesting without being overly simplistic, the criticisms and praises are balanced for North and South, and the maps are okay (would have liked to have seen more and enlarged).
		While the book's approximately 270 pages are small by Civil War standards (of course, other battles were larger and had more political developments and changes in leadership as opposed to the time of 1st Bull Run), Davis does a good job of weaving the political climate and military strategy in with the battle descriptions.
		The Battle of Bull Run is a lucid account of the early days of the war climaxing with, of course, the first major engagement at Bull Run.

		On the afternoon of July 21, 1861, Confederate Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard looked through his field glasses at a column of soldiers advancing toward the battlefield at Bull Run, where fighting had raged since early morning.
		Beauregard could not tell if the approaching troops were Confederate or Union, but he knew that if they were the enemy, the day would be lost, and he would have to order a retreat.

		Historian Detzer (Allegiance: Fort Sumter, Charleston and the Beginning of the Civil War) provides a lucid narrative of the battle’s course, judiciously assesses the causes and authors of the Union defeat, draws vivid thumbnail sketches of participants from generals to privates, and debunks the "stone wall" legend and other enduring myths of the battle.
		And Bull Run gave volunteers imbued with romantic jingoism their first taste of the horror, chaos and physical agony of combat.
		While Detzer does a wonderful job in describing the battle and the actions of the units I still think he should have included at least a few to help the reader better understand the movements of the armies.
