Editorial Reviews

More than a military history, The Divided Union encompasses the social, economic, political, constitutional, moral, racial, literary, artistic, and international implications of an event that has left no American untouched. This documentary tour de force integrates a wealth of first-hand information from diaries, letters, historic photographs, paintings, personal reminiscences, and footage of battlefields and historic locations. Full-scale re-enactments of many key battles, and commentary by more than 50 noted Civil War historians, help separate the reality of this brutal and costly war from the myths.
