Battles and leaders of the Civil War (ajánló, 1989-es kiad.)
Once sworn enemies, the commanders from the North and South were brought together in the 1880s to write eyewitness reports of their campaigns in this great conflict. Their moving recollections, arranged chronologically and published originally in four volumes, form the definitive source book of the War between the States. Now these accounts by Ulysses S. Grant, John B. Hood, G. T. Beauregard, George B. McClellan, and others who fought and rode with them have been compressed into a single volume. Through their eyes and in their words, you can witness the opening shots of the war at Fort Sumter, learn about the fatal wounding of Stonewall Jackson from the officer who carried him from the battlefield, experience the battle between the Monitor and the Merrimac from the vantage point of the Union ship's artillery turret, and watch Lee surrender at Appomattox Court House.
A singular record of war and men, Battles and Leaders of the Civil War is compelling history, vividly conveying the sights, sounds, and emotions of the battlefield.
