Lee Moves North reveals how the general's penchant for secrecy about his plans—a prerequisite for the political battle he waged with his superiors in Richmond—undermined the Army of Northern Virginia. Keeping his true intentions hidden from President Jefferson Davis and Secretary of War James Seddon meant also keeping the plans secret from even the army's trusted corps commanders. As a result, inadequate support, poor or nonexistent staff work, and confusion about campaign objectives all contributed to failure.
Not another English Book! Indeed, not at all. In this new and exciting text, Dave Hopkins has managed to make the leap from the same old tired textbook filled with the same old tired content, into an important new arena. Smooth Moves is not a text about content, grammar, and language utilization. Smooth Moves is not a "what to teach" textbook, it is an entry into what to do in the classroom, on a daily basis, to facilitate language acquisition.
