History of the Civil War 1861-1865 (平装) 0486409007

Awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1917, this volume is widely regarded as the first unbiased history of the Civil War and one of the best single-volume studies of that conflict. It is remarkable for its scholarly research, objectivity and engrossing narrative style. "This very attractive volume is just what is now required to give the general reader a clear outline of the Civil War...It is well worthy of the welcome it has already received."—American Historical Review. Index. Notes. 2 maps. New introduction.
