This was a total bore! I paid full price expecting an interesting read, but was I ever dissapointed. I could not even finish it without falling asleep.

Excellent scholarship -- and an interesting lens to take a look at how the experience of the Civil War shaped the America that emerged from all that death and destruction, and the attitudes of Americans who were yet unborn.
