This book is the absolute best day by day history of the Civil War that I have ever encountered. It makes you feel as though you are there and able to relive the actual day's with the soldiers and commanding officers. Every care has been taken to cover detail and events as they took place. I would love to see another published dealing with the Civil War Hospitals by the same author.Mr Denney excels in his field. Thank You for a GREAT book and information contained therein.

This book puts you right on the front lines and in the hearts of some of the soldiers with their personal letters and diaries. Also, the overview of the military strategies helps place the action. A good addition to any historic library, and a good character study because of all the intimate details.

This is with out a doubt the best overview of the Civil War and the events leading into and through the war. The views from troops on both sides as well as the leaders of both the military and political make this an abslute must read for all interested.

In depth recovery of personal papers provides a real look into the lives of the men and women who lived the war
