Title: One of the best books on the battle
Review: Although published "way back" in 1974, Wiley Sword's Shiloh: Bloody April still proves to be one of the best books on the subject. The book proves to be well written and narrative of the battle provides interesting insights and perceptions. The book remains relatively unbias in nature. The author writes critically about leaders of both armies while understanding that sometimes, mistakes happens! The author provides good background material to the battle before and after.I am not sure what the previous reviewer wrote when complaining about lacks of maps. I thought 18 maps provided in the book was more then enough.This book belong in Civil War library of anyone who have such an interest.
Is the review positive or negative?
