Battle Echoes on the Mississippi and Zollicoffer’s Death

Generals Wolrd Ford and McCook are praised for steadfast leadership as Zollicoffer falls victim to a breast wound, while field scenes recount near-encirclement faults, river crossings, and the exhausted yet resolute troops marching toward further pursuit.
