When the Civil War began in 1861, Florida--although the third state to secede from the Union--was of little strategic importance to North or South. By the end of 1863, this position had changed dramatically. For the struggling Confederacy, Florida had become a crucial source of supplies, most especially for the troops in Savannah and Charleston. President Lincoln, soon to be seeking re-election and facing immense dissatisfaction due to the course which the war had taken, was desperately seeking some method of remedying his political situation. Bringing a reconstructed Florida back into the Union, with delegates who he hoped would be friendly to the Republican cause, seemed to be an ideal solution. Thus the Union launched a last-minute endeavor to regain control of Florida, an effort that culminated in the Battle of Olustee. Compiled from primary sources such as diaries and journals, this work tells the story of the failed Union attempt to wrest control of eastern and central Florida away from the Confederacy. From the legislature to the battlefield, it details maneuvers military and political that went into the Florida campaign. The main focus of the work is the Battle of Olustee, or Ocean Pond, as it was known in the South. One of the bloodiest battles of the war with inordinately high casualties (171/2 percent for the Confederates, 35 percent for the Union), this conflict took place in February 1864 between troops commanded by Union General Truman Seymour and Confederate General Joseph Finegan. Little more than a bloody stalemate between generals who lacked significant military experience, the battle nevertheless decisively ended Union hopes of regaining Florida. Appendices provide details on the opposing armies, a list of casualties by unit and enlistment of black troops by state. Contemporary photographs and an index are also included.

"Although there is a considerable connection among all staff ride handbooks, the Staff Ride Handbook for the Battle of Olustee, Florida, 20 February 1864, has some significant differences from others. One of the aspects that sets the Olustee battle apart from other staff rides is the near exact parity of forces and equally favorable ground for both combatants, resulting in a battle that depended even more so than normally on the skills and application of leadership and resource management, namely logistics and physical endurance. This battle was a struggle between two forces led by leaders inexperienced at such high levels of command with many units that had never served either together or in the case of some regiments ever before in battle. It was a multi-brigade meeting engagement providing a clear, systematic tactical-level battle for analysis, though by necessity, the tactical nature limits much of the operational analysis found in some other staff rides. Though there exist significant operational-level topics to be discussed in the events leading to the tactical action, it is essentially a study of brigade- and regimental-level leadership and tactics"--
