5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on the subject!, September 5, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Spirits of the Civil War (Paperback)

Troy Taylor's "Spirits of the Civil War" is the best book on this subject, hands down! He not only discusses the paranormal activities surrounding these stories, he has done extensive background research on the subjects, and gives you exact and unpolluted history of the events as well! I give the book two thumbs up!

By A Customer

This review is from: Spirits of the Civil War (Paperback)

Troy Taylor has written an absolute masterpiece that covers, not only the folklore of the Civil War but also a interesting historical analysis of the subject. It is well written and well researched.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book on the hauntings and folklore of the Civil War, November 1, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Spirits of the Civil War (Paperback)

I enjoyed this book. It contains many legends of the haunted battlefields of America's greatest conflict. Although, some of the stories sound mostly like folklore instead of documented hauntings, it does have some excellent documentation of the authors research on some of them. The only complaint I have is that the book did not seem to be too carefully edited, but it is a very enjoyable book.
