Summary: The Confederate Spirit is alive & shining!
Comment: 88 spectacular works of art tell the story that haunts us still of the Confederate States of America: its leaders & commoners, its determination & spirit, its pride & romance with a lyrical supporting text that explains historical details.
The Civil War was not what either side expected or wanted. A few hotheads - militant abolitionists from the North & secessionists from the South - fed the flames while the majority of Americans stared on in bewilderment as the Union disintegrated.
In The High Command Mort Kunstler gives us glimpses of the movers & shakers of the battles to come; fresh in their uniforms, devout in their cause & James Robertson's narrative keeps pace with this artist's energy & insights.
Through heat of summer & cold of winter, over trackless hillsides & through mud- coated towns, Mort Kunstler keeps us going; from bloody battle fields in the mists of morning to cavalry charges into the smoke of cannon fire; from sunbaked drummer boys to bone-weary marchers; from cheering infantrymen as their leaders ride by to face-to-face gun fights in wooded ravines; from heartbreaking bad news to new babies born; from dazzling balls to heroic stands in broad daylight to dismal retreats in the dark of night.
A wonder-filled pictorial history book, rich in the details of the life & times of the people of the Confederacy with fascinating stories. A must for any reader of American history. Do visit my site for my full review of this & many more books on history & art.

Summary: Poetry and Art
Comment: Having taken a Civil War class from James I. Robertson at Virginia Tech, I can tell you that this man is a poet. When reading this book you can actually feel yourself in the shoes of these brave men. Most people can speak or write, but Robertson can do both. He paints a picture with his moving words. Even if you aren't a Civil War fan, this book will open your mind to a side of the Civil War rarely seen.

Summary: Incredible Work!
Comment: This book is a must have for any follower of Mort Kunstler's work. It is packed with 88 of his Confederate based works, including 30 not before found in any book. A true gem. These works are complemented by the text of Civil War historian, James Roberston Jr. I highly recommend it to any collector of Civil War books.
