Title: Excellent.
Review: This type of book is all too rare. It is a book that dispels certain popular myths. Too many books that deal with this period in American History are too content to look at this issue of North versus South as a done and dusted issue with the North as the Good Guys and the South as the Bad, and this book deals with and demolishes plenty of widely accepted facts regarding this. The authors quite rightly have a very deep - rooted pride in where they come from, and this shows constantly throughout the book. The research they have undertaken is meticulous, and is very easy to read. Their knowledge of certain aspects of Scottish history, incidentally, would shame a lot of people who actually come from Scotland. This book has to be read.
