5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent piece of suberb research on a little known subject, January 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Lone Star and Double Eagle: Civil War Letters of a German-Texas Family (Paperback)

Ms. Altglet shows off her obviously suberb knowledge of the ancient German language and also her ability to dig deeply into little known subject matter. Her explanations of the various details of these marvelous letters between several sons and their father during the Civil War read like you were there in the parlor while they were being read. I learned a great deal about the Texas German involvement in the war. My hat's off to a delightful author.
