Steven Sodergren's "The Army of the Potomac" covers the last year or so of the campaign, but I prefer it because it focuses on the trench warfare aspect. Lee had to resort to prepared positions due to his inferiority in numbers. When Grant couldn't dislodge the Confederates he would simply pull back and try another end run. There are a lot of books condemning Grant's strategy, but I don't know what more he could have had given the situation and Lee's counter-moves.
