Title: A comprehensive review of the Civil War and attitudes of the times.
Review: The book is an extremely detailed account of the politics and major personalities of this war. It may be a little heady and long winded for some readers, but a well researched piece. If you ever wanted to know the reasons for this war and the feelings of the peoples involved, this is a work to read. However, the Kindle version has battle maps which are microscopic in size with details blurred beyond recognition - they really should work this part out as these illustrations are meant to go in hand with the written stories of troop movements. Also the author fails to give much emphasis on the horrid conditions found within the plantations and slave markets of the old South for the slaves themselves, while giving painstaking details on media exchanges and political movements of other parts of society. Overall a very nice work worth reading for history or political buffs.
