CW035P   Blood & Treasure.  Confederate Empire in the Southwest.    
D.S. Frazier

Led by Lt. Col. John R. Baylor and Gen. H. H. Sibley, Confederate soldiers from Texas trekked from San Antonio to Fort Bliss in El Paso, then north along the Rio Grande to Santa Fe. Fighting both Apaches and Federal troops, the half-trained, undisciplined army met success at the Battle of Val Verde and defeat at the Battle of Apache Canyon. Finally, they won a sound victory in the Battle of Glorieta Pass, only to lose their supply train—and eventually the campaign.  Paper. 376 pp. one left
