As a supplement to Jeff's excellent text and simply outstanding maps I also recommend you listen to the five part series that Marc Edelheit did on the subject for his 2 Cent History podcast series. Like Dan Carlin's Hardcore History, 2 Cent History is an extremely well researched podcast, and his Shot Heard Round the World series is simply one of the best history podcast's I have listened to. I think I must have listened to it four or five times and it is a permanent resident on my iPhone.
So give all these folks some love, read Jeff's blog, and listen to Marc's and Dan's podcasts. You will not regret it.
