- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5'Not an anthology, not a collection; this is more of a very well-written sampler. The essays (or parts of chapters or articles or whatever they are) stand alone, but are arranged and do cover, the duration of the Civil War. Subjects include Lincoln's beginning strategies and Fort Sumter, Southern strategies, the Battle of Mulvern Hill, George Thomas and the war record of the Conferderate Navy's Shenandoah. Each topic provided incentive to read more at some later time.
