A Pitiless Rain: The Battle of Williamsburg, 1862

Comments:

This is the only book-length account of the Battle of Williamsburg that I'm aware of, and that makes this book a great addition to any Civil War library. The writing style is pretty good, and there are a lot of maps, but the computer graphics used to generate those maps make them look a little weird. I really enjoyed the authors' appendix where they described the current locations and condition of the redoubts in the Confederate defense line. Unfortunately many of them are now on private property or have been destroyed by modern construction projects.
