Description

Pulitzer Prize-winning author James McPherson (Battle Cry of Freedom) draws on the letters or diaries of nearly 1,000 Union and Confederate soldiers in investigating what motivated those who fought the Civil War. The result is both an impressive scholarly tour de force and a highly accessible account of the sentiments of both sides of the conflict.
