An excellent, well-researched read

This is a well-researched, well-written book that kept my attention from the first page to the last. I recommend it highly for anyone who enjoys reading about the Civil War or anyone who just likes to read literate history. Never mind the rivet-counters who nag about the small errors in this book. It is deserving of its accolades.
