5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting and Captivating, June 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: More Civil War Curiosities: Fascinating Tales, Infamous Characters, and Strange Coincidences (Paperback)
I have three of Garrison's books: The Amazing Civil War, Civil War Curiosities, and More Civil War Curiosities. I would recommend each and every book to anyone! The facts that Garrison writes about are both interesting and captivating and being a high school American History teacher, I plan on using the facts that I have found no where else to captivate my students and give them a perspective on the war that they may have never found otherwise

5.0 out of 5 stars Even more Curiosities!, March 5, 2000
This review is from: More Civil War Curiosities: Fascinating Tales, Infamous Characters, and Strange Coincidences (Paperback)
The unusual and the bizzare are the continual trademarks of this work. The stories are lively, interesting and even thought provoking.

The work takes you outside the realm of modern textbooks to give you the inside scoop of the Civil War. A truly fascinating read!
