Burnside? info


It would seem that if Burnside remained a Brigade commander he may have had greater success throughout the war. His early success, 61/62 might be attributed to the fact that he was in command of a smaller number of forces engaged. It wasn't until his promotion that he began to fail miserably as his responsibilities increased.
