Summary: An amazing account of the men who fought the Civil War.
Comment: This book is a fantastic source of information about the lives of the men fighting the Civil War. It is not focused on causes of the war or the governmental issues that fueled it except where these related the personal lives of the men who fought. It was about common men: Yankee and Rebel. It gives us a snapshot of their passion, the conditions they endured, their joys and sorrows.

The book shows us how common men of all walks of life, and nationalities became soldiers (or not). There are many excerpts and quotes from the people who were there. It gives insight into how they fought, the equipment they used, the pride they felt and what it was like when it was over.

The pictoral history in this book is wonderful. There are pictures from the actual conflict as well as pictures of artifacts photographed later.

Davis' writing style creates such a vivid picture of the world these men lived in. This book is a long way from the dry accounts many history books provide.

I highly recommend this book!
