GOOD DEAL & FINE REFERENCE BOOK ON THE CIVIL WAR,
By
This review is from: The Timechart History of the Civil War (Time Charts) (Hardcover)
Don't expect a detailed history of the Civil War complete with quotes and in-depth analyses of the personalities, the battles, the comlexities of the conflict.What you do have in "The Timechart History of the Civil War" is a brief, but not-too brief narrative timechart chock full of interesting and informative sidebar themes on weapons, guerrillas, the brownwater and bluewater navies, and the cavalry to name just a few of the selections. This timechart also overflows with illustrations, engravings, prints, and old photographs so it is definitely not an ordinary timechart. Furthermore, the editors and publishers have colour-tinged illustrations that would normally have been seen in black and white. Ever see how George Custer would have looked in a colour photograph? Or John Singleton Mosby? A comprehensive timeline, though not substantial history of the Civil War that deserves a place not just on the shelf of the Civil War buff but also on the shelves of most public libraries!

Best Civil War Timeline I've Seen,
By Michael Hansen (Roseburg, OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Timechart History of the Civil War (Time Charts) (Hardcover)
This is the best Civil War Timeline I've seen yet.It mainly concentrates on the generals and battles of the Civil War.It could have been better if they included some of the unknown (to many people) weapons and ships.Exp: they should have hade something on the gatling gun.
