The Human Side of History,
By "keegeelee" (Salisbury, NC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Across the Dark River: The Odyssey of the 56th N.C. Infantry in the American Civil War (Paperback)
This book is a generous gift to anyone interested in not only the facts of the Civil War, but also how it was lived by those engaged in it. It depicts desperate battles that, though they may be listed as "skirmishes", were nothing less than horrific fights for survival for the participants. At the same time, it puts the reader in the trenches around Petersburg, fighting rain, sun, disease, mud, sharpshooters and monotony. This is not just good history, its a great read.

Excellent novel,
By Sean O'Daniel (Norton, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Across the Dark River: The Odyssey of the 56th N.C. Infantry in the American Civil War (Paperback)
Picked this one up through a friend, much better than Frazier's "Cold Mountain". Must-have for any Civil War buff.
