The greatest misfortune for the Army of the West was the death of Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston at Shiloh. He was widely regarded as Robert E Lee’s equal in skill and had he lived the war in the West would have been much different.

Yes, I agree. A.S. Johnston was a great loss.
My people served under Joe Johnston (no relation). A hard-fighting general but not as brilliant as A.S.
