176 pages. "In Bloody River, first published in 1970, Martin Blumenson
presents his view of how the "personal equation" figured into
the debacle. Focusing on the generals responsible for the
ill-fated attack, Blumenson traces key points in the personal
profiles of the diffident 36th Division commander Fred L. Walker;
Gen. Mark "Wayne" Clark, the imperious commander of American
ground forces; and the tactful and tactically gifted former
cavalry officer Gen. Geoffrey T. Keyes, commander of II Corps
and Walker's immediate superior."
